Description
The Heron's Catch
This Great Blue Heron was seen at Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge. There were egrets and herons in the field. In these refuges, your car acts as a blind, so the herons are not that worried about you, although this was the closest I've ever gotten to both an egret and heron. This heron was intent on hunting and I have a few photographs of this one catching what appears to be a mole or shrew, then swallowing it, and then immediately moving and on hunting for the next meal.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
