Cracking image Karl. "Shaking it off" adds another dimension of interest. Really cool!

Lovely pose and detail on the fluffed up heron, and the duckweed colour makes a pretty background, Karl.

An excellent image, Karl; the green background gives a nice contrast to the colours in the heron.

Love the fluffed up look-great shot! I'm always amused, for some reason, but Green Herons. This one proves my point. :)

Excellent pose and detail. I'm a bit behind on my comments but I like both of your Green Heron images but I prefer this one because of the ruffled feathers on its head.
