We have a heron that hangs out on a couple lakes in front of our subdivision. I have been trying to get a decent shot for quite awhile. On one side of the lake there is a road so any shots that way can have the road, power lines and cars.
As I was moving along the opposite side of the lake trying to follow as he moved he took off just as I set down the tripod. I was lucky enough to grab three frames. This one is the best. :lol:

Super in-flight shot, looks like it was very far away and you nailed it .
