Not Quite What I Expected to See While Watching Golf

While sitting on the couch watching the Phoenix open on TV I catch site of this BIG bird landing in the backyard, “Quick grab the camera!” And through the window I got a shot or two of the Great Blue Heron that is desperate to eat my fish in the pond. This shot was taken through the window, not the best photo in the world but pretty exciting just the same. The heron must have seen us moving inside because it quickly flew off.

So of course I had to step outside to see where he was off too. He landed on a power pole quite a ways away.

But that didn’t stop him from looking back at us.

I think he is a little irritated with me for spoiling his lunch plans. :)
