I've never really seen anything like this before!
On our way to visit @provider yesterday, we passed a series of ponds. There was an amazing amount of birds in the water, and we saw a large quantity of Great Blue Herons. There were a variety of other birds too, but I'll share more photos later. Here are some of the ones I took yesterday. They make me want to head back over there and try to take some more photos, when I have more time. We will see. Enjoy the photos!
MOSTLY GREAT BLUE HERONS
Until next time…

This photo is amazing! I love the reflection on the water and the ripples. Not to mention the background is superb. I could see this photo being in a wildlife magazine like 'National Audubon'. Fantastic work. Thanks for sharing these pictures!
F.Y.I. It is now the background on my computer until something else catches my fancy. It might be awhile. This photo is truly captivating.
Wow! I am truly blessed. Also, if you see my most recent post, you win!
Nice photos! There was 13 eagles there last week! That area seems to be a bird magnet right now!
We saw one Osprey!
verry nice pictures
I think they turned out pretty well!
Lovely birds.
I guess these are the ones who eat fish
They eat fish, frogs, snakes, small turtles, tadpoles, and a variety of fish, plus other things too probably.
Frogs o.O

that is nice shot ,the beauty of the heron is indeed, worthy to draw attention of people.
Beautiful....beautiful.....beautiful...👏this is an amazing picture, I actually have not seen different kinds of birds together in the water and this is nature at it's best and nature is sure beautiful,@papa-pepper this is a wonderful photography and thanks for sharing.
Those animal are beautiful. I do see these when I was little but more at the river bank. The birds are having some quiet time without disturbance. Your photography skill is good, it looks like a professional photographer took the photos.
Thank you for the compliments. I am learning and trying!
The Blue Herons are very stately. We have quite a few Blue Herons in our area but I have never seen so many in one place. They tend to be quite solitary and hide in the bushes. Great pictures.
I've never seen so many so close either. Probably due to limited open water.
beautiful post @papa-pepper, thanks for sharing
Really beautiful animal photos
You ve got a real taste for animal photography
So loving this sir, hardly would one find such amazing animal here.
Would want to be seeing more of this
I have only seen this in movies. Wow. Amazing view. You always manage to capture them well. I love the one you captured, at the take off. The reflection on the water makes it nicer. Well done Papa.
Yeah, a few could have been better, but I'm still learning!
Nice photography @papa-pepper
With time Papa. You did way better than average.
Natural and beautiful. Nature is awesome!
@eurogee
What kind of birds is this? Maybe an immigrant bird from another country. But @grandam said it was a Blue Herons... Still I am not familiar with it. (^_^)
I've never seen one of these guys up close! They are beautiful! Great shots
We were pretty close, well close enough to get these shots anyway. At least the camera zoom makes up for it.
these are beautiful birds, in our place there is nothing like this, which is where we stork white in the rice fields is quite a lot.
We have a blue heron that hunts mice in our pastures during the summer.
Wow! Very cool. I did not know that they did that!
I really like the blue-grey you captured on the wings of the heron in flight. They are beautiful birds. I also like the photo of the duck flying past the herron. Nice photos, @papa-pepper.
Wow...lovely picture
Incredible shots, I especially love the ones with the birds in flight in them, very cool. :D How far away were you when you took them? It looks like you were really close for all of them. Thanks for sharing them. :D
God bless you and the pepper clan. :D Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! :D
Usually a couple hundred feet. (gotta love the zoom lens)
Really, that far away? That's a very impressive zoom lens for sure. It looks like your only a few feet away for some of them and not much farther than that in others. :D Very cool. :D Thanks. :D
God bless you and the pepper clan. :D Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! :D
a really beautiful blue crane, I loved it so much. In my field also many wandering storks but white, when I plow the fields, a group of white crane birds will find food in my field of fish or small worms and other small animals.

The blue herons are really blue! I like the shaggy feathers!
Me too!
magnificent birds! Love that solo one with the perfect reflection.
These look like oil paintings. Unique, guess because of the time of year. I particularly like the one with the bird in flight and the reflection below. Super photo!
Harons are such elegant birds.
Great photos!
