Herons

I got some very nice closeup shots of herons today. Herons are flocking to the lakes and streams on campus these days.

A black-crowned night heron sits perched in the distance.

This a smaller black-crowned night heron near the shore of the lake. I could get really close to it and it did not fly off.

Here's a closeup of the heron.

This is a little heron walking along behind the School of Pharmacy.

For the past few weeks I've only seen glimpses of herons, but in these past few days I've been able to get nice clear shots of them.
