2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Great Blue Heron, Bombay hook Wildlife Refuge, Smyrna, Delaware, United States of America
An early morning catch!

Species: Great Blue Heron | Location: Bombay hook Wildlife Refuge, Smyrna, Delaware, United States of America

This Great Blue Heron was sitting on the edge of the water looking for fish…suddenly she bend down and grabbed this fish. I had hoped to photograph her eating it but she flew away (to her nest?).
