This is a great blue heron. I was in my car and I saw this guy fly in close to where I was. I drove very slow to the waters edge and was able to get close. I was shooting through the open window.
All birds have two eyelids. There is one inside that is clear and one with feathers outside. I thought it was neat I caught him in the middle of a blink! On the tip of this bill looks fuzzy. That is bits of feathers where he had been preening himself.
I am using an Olympus E3 Camera ISO 400 70-300mm lens 1000/sec f9.5
