Great Blue Heron Diving for Fish

Huntley Meadows Park - Alexandria, Virginia
August 22nd, 2021
Great Blue Herons are still one of my favorite birds to photograph. On this particular day, after watching this heron I noticed behaviors that indicated he was about to go for a fish. I was able to grab this capture and lucky enough to also capture the fish trying to escape. This capture shows timing can be everything with wildlife photography.

I am in my 50's and happily married with 5 daughters from our blended family. I became interested in photography just a few short years ago, much later in life than many but my passion is strong. I started out experimenting with scenic mountain shots, landscapes, flowers and anything nature as being outside is where I am happiest.
