Week 51 by Becky

WHATEVER, I AM OUTTA HERE!

Well, since my comrades posted their heron photos I figured it was only befitting I post mine.  This is the same heron in their photos that was getting yelled at by the other heron.  After awhile, this guy just took off because he was tired of being yelled at.  Normally, when you see these birds, they are very peaceful.  So, imagine our surprise when we heard the one heron yelling at the other.  Was kind of funny.  The one yelling was totally beside himself.  The one being yelled at was looking at him like "Whatever".  Hard to believe this is week 51 of our 52 project.  Boo Hoo. Hope we have another one.  Especially look forward to our NWG outings.  Thanks Judy, for planning them :)

Somewhere Over the Heron...Way Up High...

Ha ha! Week of birds here on NWG's! Heron from the highest level of the observation deck at Gatorland. What a beautiful bird! It was a cloudy day, so to freeze the action I used ISO 800. A bit grainy. I used Noise Ninja on the background and left the grain on the bird so I wouldn't smooth the feathers out. The blah background is the murky pond. Hopefully, the colors of the heron make up for it.
