Here’s to taking the long shot on the off-chance it works out well…..
Three Great Blue Herons winging through a white sky. Sometimes at sunset a single GBH will fly low and leisurely over our house, and if it is lucky it passes unnoticed by our dogs, who patrol the sky as well as the land.
I always feel grateful when wild creatures allow me into their presence. (All photos taken with an amazing zoom – I never want to stress loons or other animals just to take a picture.) Same loon above and below.
This is the loon family that I’ve been watching this summer. My primary goal was not to stress them, so just a quick shot as we puttered by.
