| Great Blue Heron Flyby | June 2006 |
| |
Given the normal luck of most flybys, the bird in question is disappearing behind trees. However, last week I saw a pair of great blue herons approaching from a fair distance and over open sky. I could only fit one heron within the frame of the photo, but there are times when one is enough.
The approach.

The great blue heron perhaps became self-conscious and began veering away.

They are absolutely magnificent to watch in flight!
