Great Blue Heron -- Ardea herodias

            Central Park, Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana.

Most of you will probably consider this laughable, but this is an action shot. Note that one of the heron's legs is raised up out of the water. The bird was moving ever so slowly through the water and lily pads. Today's cameras are getting so good at being able to capture incredible images of animals in action. This isn't one of them, but it was the best I could do on this morning.
