Great Blue Heron fishing on the fly
I have watched hundreds of Great Blue Heron fishing, but I have never witnessed one catching a fish on the fly. I was not sure exactly what I was witnessing at first, but once I got home and looked at the pictures, there was no mistaking. I did not get an image of him grabbing the fish, but I got the approach and the departure.
The heron never landed on the water. He just scooped up the fish and flew off. I learn something new every day watching these guys.
