Great Blue Heron along with a sunset and a half moon
I really like when this big bird comes around, it usually walks the bank and looks for little fish or maybe frogs to eat. Though when I show up it gets a little camera shy and just stares at me..lol I used my tripod to get these pictures, and indeed they look better this time I think. In these pictures I got some more shots of the ducks, and some pretty pictures of sunset along with the moon showing up.

Earlier in the day I spotted those ducks again... the ducks can now be seen better, but since they always stay a few hundred feet away and are pretty small it still makes it hard to get some good pictures of them.
They swim through the lilly pads, most of them have gone dormant at this point. So its pretty easy for them to move around. I hope to see them next year when the pond is full of those lilly pads again.
We can see them looking back as they swim away. I only got a few seconds once they see me as they start swimming to the other end of the pond.
A Great Blue Heron showed up as well, probably looking for the same thing as the ducks.. tasty fish. This fresh water pond is something they show up to a lot.
It walks around but gets a little camera shy and just watches me.
Eventually it gets fed up with my presence and flies up to a near by tree.
It just sits there waiting for me to leave..lol I wait for about 5-10 minutes but it just stays there.
Coming back later I can see its back at the ponds bank.
It found a little grassy spot to walk around on.
As the sun starts to set the sky and surrounding area is casted in a pink light from the atmosphere shifting colors.
It is starting to look really pretty up in the sky.
As the sun goes down the heron stays around, but it gets harder to get any good pictures of it in the setting light.
Once the sun has mostly dropped below the horizon the presence of the moon takes over. Becoming the dominant object seen in the sky by this time.
The last few rays of the sun is casted along with the forest tree line.
Many of the trees have dropped their leaves by this time of the year so they are just sticks along the horizon.
A few clouds are hanging around making for streaks in the sky.
The moon gets brighter and brighter as more of the sunlight fades away. Partially obscured by clouds as they pass by, but soon a starry night is all that will remain up there.
nice shots!

Very interesting, you might spend time to be able to devote the beauty of this blue heron, and it can also be seen that the heron is pacing back and forth, maybe because he is aware of your presence lol.
Until the sun begins to set which provides extraordinary beauty from the charm of a very beautiful sunset, I am very entertained, have a nice day my brother ♥️

What a beautiful photo essay, sunsets are always magical and the moonlight is romantic
I love these bird photos you've taken, the blue heron is really beautiful.
I love seeing it pose on the trees and on the water's shore, its reflections are beautiful.

Hola 👋 @solominer, haciendo tomas fotográficas del estante natural 💦 , bonitas imágenes de las aves bro, en esa zona es mucho los animales que presentas en los contenidos. Buen lugar para la siembra al menos el agua no falta 😊🙏🏻. Saludos crack 😎
Yep they all show up to the watering hole around here.
I love seeing Great Blue Herons in the wild. They are so graceful and interesting looking, almost like seeing a prehistoric dinosaur or something. That's what I think anyway.
I know what you mean, those herons are really big.

Gosh the reflection of the duck in the first pic' looks very clear I can tell you really enjoying this new lens
Yeah loving those reflections on the pond.
Sure am.
It really is
Your camera takes nice pictures. The Blue Herons down here also eat baby gators, I have seen more than one with a little gator in their beak.
Ah thanks, yeah it is a good setup.
Oh interesting.. that is cool. Glad we do not have gators where I live.. would make me nervous going near the water.
I live in this nice area where we have no wolfs and no gators.. perfect.
I would love to live on land up there as you do, it is the winters that I do not like.
Growing up my cousins and I swam with gators, back then they were afraid of humans, now that they are protected and people feed them, they have lost their fear and now swim up to your boat or worse swim to you when you are onshore fishing, they have even taken peoples fish, those are the ones to watch.
Lotta nice shots there! We have a blue heron that hangs around in warmer weather. On my farm, he's in pastures if they are mown or grazed. If not he hangs around at the neighbor's pond looking for frogs.
Thanks, oh nice.. when we cut our fields the turkeys tend to come out and pick through the hay. I have only seen the heron here by the pond or up in a near by tree.. interesting.
I must confess that I covert your camera because these pictures are so lovely. If all these scenes are in site, then you have a lovely place 😊
Ah thank you, it is a lovely place.
Lately a lot of birds have started to appear around you, I am very happy to see them standing freely while looking at you, not only that, the view of the sky was also very charming at that time, and you captured it very well my friend 😍👍

Oh it eats a lot.. hopefully one day I can capture it getting some food.

Thanks, yep sure did.. learned from last time its hard to get some longs distance captures of small stuff without it.

great shot!
if I do not forget, I will post a picture of a heron, in a river that I made, from my phone :)
