This blue heron is apparently amazed by not finding any fish here. Think however that it isn't accustomed to find alternatives in this environment, ☺ .

Poor Heron - he looks a bit miffed. A fine clear picture Cornelius and his expression is priceless.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Mr C, such excellent focus and detail in your picture. I also like your composition with the heron off center with his head leaning into upper center.

I have seen these guys eat more than fish. Whatever can fit down their throat will do.

He's a beauty Mr. C. - you captured his color perfectly along with those unique heron eyes.

Perhaps the heron was led astray because he does look somewhat perplexed - when he finds water stocked with fish, that expression on his face will surely change - Great shot Cornelius - love those grasses - dune grass!!!!!!!!!!!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

"The primary food for great blue heron is small fish, though it is also known to opportunistically feed on a wide range of shrimp, crabs, aquatic insects, rodents, and other small mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and birds, especially ducklings". It could be scanning the grass for a few of those menu items. An excellent capture of one of these beautiful birds, C.
