stalking prey in the surf on Captiva Island, Florida.
You want me to be happy, don’t you?
DON’T YOU?
What a gorgeous image. Go play hooky some more (just kidding :=D)
Oh Tink! This is one super photo of that Heron! Just fabulous!! Happy O.W. to you…
One of the things I love the most about Florida are all of the different “birds”, waterfowl, etc, that we see on a daily basis! Love the Heron.
Playing “hooky” (well not really since I’m “on hiatus” from work and daughter is homeschooled) to go to Animal Kingdom tomorrow for Earth Day!
My Ruby Tuesday is here.
Gorgeous picture. You can almost see each feather.
Oops, I meant Watery Wednesday! Getting my days confused!
My Watery Wednesday is here.
Hi Tink, did you get your feet wet taking this pic? Very sharp!
That is the first time I have seen a great blue heron in the surf. What a magnificent shot!
What a beautiful picture…I wish I was there…this Tennessee spring has been so cold and wet…I need sunshine…
I love herons but I also love Captiva — Iwas not overly fond of Florida until I found Captiva and Sanibel! Thanks for sharing!
Tink,
What a beautiful blue heron, how lucky that you were able to take such a wonderful picture. Thank you for sharing.

That is another nice picture this week. I think I like this one even more
That is a great picture. Thanks for sharing.
I didn’t realize the Heron would venture into the surf! You captured a great photo.

That’s a great shot – Very clear
Gorgeous photo! I love blue herons, although I don’t usually see them in such a beautiful setting.
Wow! What an amazing photo of a beautiful bird.
Wow, what a beautiful bird and stunning shot! I love the waves in the background! Nicely done.
Gorgeous, gorgeous gorgeous! Worth playing hooky, for sure.
Great photo. The heron is very well posed and centered, and the waves are very clear as well.
Looks lovely, and almost looking like a painting
Here on the Westo Caost I get a Blue Heron in my yard every now and then, they are spectacular aren’t they.
amazing
happy WW

Great picture of the Blue Heron and the blue/green surf! Happy Earth Day!
Nice fowl! she posed elegantly for your camera.
Happy WW!
AWESOME! I definitely wanna play hookey… especially if I can see sights like this.
WONDERFUL capture! I don’t see heron at the ocean like this … only in the wetlands and harbor areas. Nifty shot ;–)
Hugs and blessings,
