Today I walked around on the land and the heron was there again...hunting in the grass, nowhere near the water. I was a little lucky to be able to sneak around the pond under cover of the oaks, and finally got a photo. The pic I missed was when a rabbit I startled ran out to the road and directly at the heron. The heron waited a long time and then flew straight up in the air, giant wings outspread...rabbit detoured around him and kept on running! And I missed a great show...I think I might investigate a new camera.

Great Blue Heron Hunting
