This guy was perched in the middle of a mosquito factory! Tough to take the bites getting a shot - did what I could! All feedback welcome!

Being from Northern Ontario, I know what you're saying, good shots none the less.

You gotta suffer if you wanna sing the blues.....or photograph green herons, apparently. Good job.

That's awesome!

Thanks everyone, around this area they sure aren't easy to find/photograph - I'm glad to have this one off the list!

sounds like you need to invest heavily into some deet based repellents... that's the best stuff to keep mosquitoes away. Also keep in mind to always spray your shoes, mosquitoes are really attracted to foot odor.....

other than that, pretty cool shots.

Very nice shots. Yes, even around northern Michigan they are tough to find and when you do, you will be eaten alive. :lol: Great job.
