Grey Heron Ardea cinera
The fight ...

Captured in some dreadful light this morning, 14 Dec 2018.
The sun didn't emerge contrary to our weather forecast earlier today.

What a great action image KK. The light didn't seem to affect the quality of your image.

KK, excellent action and behavioral image. Great spread wing poses and a fish in midair (cool) . I too have learned the weather forecast is often inaccurate in my photography.

Brilliant action KK. Getting the fish in mid air a master stroke!

Looks like the forecast is bad not only in Canada.
Excellent interaction image over a big fish, KK.

Great feeding and fighting action, wing positions, and profile view of 3 subjects, Very difficult to do.

Exciting shot! Beautiful poetry in their poses. Nice to see this camera/lens combo in action too.
