Those are really fine images. Until now I thought tri-colored herons fell into the Great Blue Heron category.
Love all birds, yay!
Actually, I think those images are awesome.

Great series. The first one looks like he's levitating.

Thanks. I took these at Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands at Viera. A great place you should also visit when in the area. If conditions are dry you can drive through it, otherwise it's open to foot traffic only. Call 321-255-4488 to find out if it is open to cars. I do shoot often at the reserve. If you go back to the reserve be sure to go through Peacock's Pocket. It's better than Black Point drive.

Thanks Blueduck. I was tempted to put captions on these. On that one it would have been something like "Okay Yoda...quit showing off and put me down!" :)

I like this series.
I especially like the last one showing the insides of the wings. Nice job.
