Nature Done Wright

   I was  quite pleased with myself that
I was able to see a great blue heron at Celery Farm the other day, and even manage to get a passable photo.

  So imagine my surprise when I looked out my window yesterday morning and see a heron walking down the path toward the Warden’s Watch.

  I was on my way to work, but I grabbed my good  camera w/telephoto and rushed out the door.

  I grabbed this shot, and then ran back into the house to get my little video camera.

  I was so amazed by it all that when the heron started walking from the bridge toward the observation platform, I held the camera sideways so I would get the heron full-frame.

   How-to hint: You cannot shoot video very well with vertical shots, at least not videos that people can watch without turning their computer on its side. 😉

   I did get this photo of the heron at the Warden’s watch.

   He acted like he was waiting for a bus. He was still there when I left.

   The marsh warden saw him in the afternoon, catching a sunfish from a gap in the ice.

   From my window, I could see him this morning at the point.
