Heron Duo

First post in this lovely bird forum you guys have here. After browsing a bit I quickly realized the high caliber of shots in here that quite outshine my own but anyways here is my contribution using my 70-200 F4 at a nearby park where a few Herons were hanging out.

You guys are lucky with such approachable Cranes! We can't get within 200 yards of these guys here...

You are indeed fortunate to be able to get so close to this beautiful bird...I can only see them from a football field's length away. Very nice shots and welcome!

Indeed, I was surprised myself. At least the birds I see on the river you don't stand a chance of getting close. These guys were very cool, the park itself is between residential neighborhoods so I assume they're just used to people, I was pretty close but they even walked past me without even ruffling a feather at my presence.
