Today was any photographer's dream. The blue heron in this set landed right outside my porch, went fishing, caught a fish and flew away...and I was there for all of it. This was shot with my Nikon D850 and AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8E lens which I just got today. What a timely appearance. Wahoo!

The great blue heron is really a spectacular bird. We have a small colony here in the harbor, so they’re not uncommon to see. But it’s not every day that one agrees to put on a show.
