Photography- one photo a day

Spring bear pack out, photo taken by my 9 year old son.

Am particularly pleased with this photo. It was not easy. The heron was quite suspicious of mankind. So... I set out in my kayak on the mighty Columbia River. I paddled past the heron at some distance. He watched but did not flee. Then a mile or so above him, I turned and drifted... Only gently paddling now and again to correct my course. I passed near him, silently, and with all attention on my camera.

Perhaps other herons are not so difficult to photograph, but this one, he took work and thought!

Regards, Guy
