Thanksgiving Trip - Great Blue Heron
Dec 28, 2013 15:22:05 #
Myrtle Beach SC is a long ways from Anchorage and since the purpose of the trip was a my wife's family reunion, I limited the gear I took. Most of the shots ended up being taken with my 5Dii and 100-400 mm lens. The weather was horrible and the subjects tended to be on the other side of marsh regardless of which side I was on. But since I had no photos of most of these birds, I am a happy camper.

Actually, there are quite a few family photos, but I won't burden UHH with them. Thanks for looking.

Beautiful images.
Thank you Linda. I look forward to having the time and energy to chase the shore birds with my 500 mm lens. Maybe next year.
