Blue Heron
These photos were taken at Sanibel Island on Florida
Herons are spectacular birds, with their long legs and long necks. We managed to get close to this one on the beach at Sanibel Island in Florida.

Cool. I got shots of a blue heron one year in upstate PA.
I am surprised he let you get that close.
Boy, you were close! He must have thought you had some lunch!
Beautiful bird, nice pictures.
Wow...
They are very beautiful :)
We have quite a lot here in the Fens. They look like pterodactyls close up! Very good photos. This fella has an impossibly thin neck!
I love these, Tony :)
Positively brilliant.
