Mike said...

Reminds me of my fishing days. Sitting on the lake early morn, feeling the bite of Fall weather. The mist rolling as you cast a top water lure. Waiting for the water to explode.

Wayne (Woody), whatever said...

The 5th one would be extraordinarily creepy in monochrome, my kind of photo! :-)

So beautiful and serene, I enjoyed the entire sequence.

A great sequence to flight!

What gorgeous shots!!! I love the first one of him flying away!

Gail Dixon (Louisiana Belle) said...

Oh, wow. So beautiful, especially where the mist is really evident. Loved that you got him flying away. A really gorgeous series.

Jeanne said...

I just love the bird in flight on the misty pond. Eerie and mystical.

Donna said...

Oh look at that fella with the nice reflection in the water! And the steam rising from the water is beautiful! Love it.

Jeanne said...

Hey I love these birds. Are all of these on your land?? Pretty amazing. Especially love the ones in the mist! Just perfect

Eugenia Robinson said...

I am sososo envious of you being able to get these fabulous shots. We do not have anything in or on our creek but tadpoles. There is one heron that refuses to ever let me get a shot of him, but that is it for us. These are so cool. Love seeing them take flight. What a wingspan. Hope you are well. Bud and I are in Roanoke for him to run the "Frosty Toe 10K in the morning. 2 of my fellow teachers are running in it and demanded that I come along to take some pictures...so here I am in a motel room playing on my computer. genie

Brian King said...

Nice glass reflection! Love the mist coming off the water! Mr. GBH looks pretty comfy.

Gillian Olson said...

Beautiful creature, I especially love the flight pictures.

pattisjarrett said...

I was beginning to wonder if the heron was real. :) The mist adds an air of mystery. The last photo with the full wing spread is perfect.

stardust said...

The heron in the reflective mood suddenly flew away! I like the reflection and smoky water. Have a super happy and healthy year ahead.

Randy said...

Sally in WA said...

Great misty pond views with the birds in flight!

You have amazing patience, Theresa. But it paid off nicely. Beautiful photos!! Happy New Year!!! :)

SquirrelQueen said...

Those are great photos. I love the mist rising from the water.

Barbara said...

What a magical sight!

petspeopleandlife said...

The herons and egrets love your pond/tank. It's a good thing for it attracts the ducks, herons, egrets, 2 species of turtles, frogs, snakes, and other wildlife. I like these photos of the great blue. You were fortunate to get the bird on the wing. A really nice capture.

Crissi said...

Super, lovely effects!
Great weekend
