Such a great portrait!!
The focus is splendid, from the eye of the heron to the head of the fish!

For some reason, I imagine the fish thinking "Worst. Birthday. EVAR."
...I'll get my coat.

Wow. Stunning shot.
Is that goop on the heron's neck just fish guts?

It's goop! It's the inside of the Heron's neck! The other day while it was preening, it was trying to pull more "goop" out!

So it really is the inside of its neck? It looks like it, but then I was wondering why and how it'd be going around with a hole in its neck.

I was about eight feet from this Justin.
I've only cropped it to about a 1.6x crop.

Yeah it was Bushy Park.
You can get very close to some of the Herons there. I could have been closer but I didn't have a wide angle lens on me at the time! I packed light after work.

I'm gonna have to head up there again soon. I got within 15ft of one in a dead tree stump last time I was there but some fecking jogger scared it off.

Great shot. They say the eyes are the window of the soul. That heron's eyes are wild!
