Very Nice Donna! It is fun to watch them fish!
Thank you, Reed! With a lot of patience on our part too! 😉 Oh, I love the challenge!
These guys eat a lot, daily. They are voracious. Great shot, Donna. 🙂
Thank you, HJ! They sure do!! 🙂
Great capture Donna 👍😊 We do get to see these beautiful birds here in my area 💕
Thank you, Denise! They are so majestic, graceful, and have such patience! I enjoy watching them. 😊
He caught a good-sized one, and so did you! 😀
We were working as a team! 😀
LOL! Love it! 😍

Congrats on a great catch…pun intended.
Thanks Ted! 😀
I agree with comment above. I was thought the photo’s caption could apply to you.
Thank you, David! I did think I got a great capture, so I guess it does! 😊
Such amazing birds – so prehistoric-looking!
Those dagger beaks certainly add to that look! 😉
They are grand fishermen. I’d be proud, too.
They sure are, thank you, Vic!
Just simply 🤩 WOW!
Thank you, Gunta! 😊
That’s a big fish, compared to those caught by our local GBH. Perfect capture for you!
Thank you, Hien! My GBH and I both succeeded!
Why not…be proud of your achievement !! 😀
Absolutely! Thank you, Indira!!

Thank you, Lisa!

Stunning photo Donna! It must have exciting to follow Heron fishing and then you have captured the perfect moment! Great weekened and happy shots 🙂
Thank you, Minna! I love watching herons and waiting for that moment they strike for a fish. This one had his/her back to me and turned around, almost like to show me, Hey, I got it! 😊
What a wonderful capture Donna, and such a large bird. I can see why the word great is used to name it, as it is large, and impressive for a Heron.
Thank you, Ashley! They are majestic with a touch of elegance. 🙂
