Very clever putting the two themes together. I am just doing two pics. Always a step ahead, eh George. Cute ones have to be a game ahead I suppose.
Nice shot. It actually looks like the Heron is chained to the bar. haha MB

If I get off my butt and get out to China Camp this morning I just might find one or two of these... Doubt if I'll be able to get so close, though...

I like the perspective on this photo; it shows off the unusual color of the bird's upper legs and under it's wings. Nice shot.
