Weather not great today, but sun appeared mid-afternoon for short while. Water quite low, so Herons waiting for tide to turn so they could resume fishing activities.
Took these 2 shots, both crops.
500D/100-400L IS
ISO 800

I especially like the one of the Heron in flight. Great capture!

Couple of great shots, though the white balance in the first one looks odd, did you have it on auto?

Thank for your comments. The sun was going down, and is mainly responsible for the warm colour - I can however alter it in DPP (having shot RAW). I used shutter priority.
