Osprey with Salmon and a Great Blue Heron.

Yesterday at Hayden Lake area, I was photographing osprey catching salmon when
I spotted a Great Blue Heron nearby, so I captured it before it flew away.
I couldn't get closer than 200 feet to the Blue Heron.
Photo #1: Canon 5Dsr - Canon 100-400 II - Canon 1.4x III - 1/1328 - f/16 - ISO @ 1250. Distance was about 125-150 feet.
Photo #2: Canon 5Dsr - Canon 100-400 II - Canon 1.4x III - 1/640 - f/13 - ISO @ 1250. Distance was about 200 feet.

Great photographs Regis. I find it interesting that the piling the GBH is resting on has a similar wood grain which matches the feather grain of the GBH. Well, to me anyway. Well done sir.

You made a good observation concerning the GBH and the piling wood grain. I thank you very much for your great comment, Dennis.

Regis . . . I dearly love the red salmon images and they ospreys are my favorite birds.
The only downside of this image is that I can't read the tag on the osprey's right leg!
Please do try and do better next time!
