Waders on Wednesday-Great Blue Heron Sunset

Today's Waders on Wednesday post comes from my trip to Delaware this weekend.  I found this great blue heron (Ardea herodias) in the Shearness Pool at Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge just as the setting sun was sinking spectacularly behind the trees.  Enjoy!

  5. Oh I needed that moment in a hectic day. This is a lovely shot Eli. I love Great Blue Herons. They have become my favorite bird. I love to see them on the river up here in the early morning mist.
