Sometimes things happen so fast you just point and shoot. While I was getting into position for some very close shots - my cell phone rang. Evidently herons have pretty good ears. I got off three shots. Two were in focus.

Guess he didn't like your ringtone! Love the colors and background.

Thanks for looking. The shot was further complicated by the fact that I was at a National Wildlife Refuge and they don't want you out of the car, so I was shooting through the open window. But yes, the phone gets turned off when I go out now. :D
