Permanent ban

Decided to post this more for the comedy gold than the technical aspects of the pic itself. The Tricolored Heron was minding his business when out of nowhere this Great Egret thought he wanted that exact place in the pond. He went out of there literally walking over the water.

Just hanging out, cool as ice....

I had a good laugh. Sometimes nature has a sense of humor.

Great job catching the action. The comical content outweighs the technical aspect.

Thanks, agree about the comical aspect because frankly the technical aspect sucks! LOL! I had the 400mmL and this happened very far from where I was.
