HA! This is quite a catch! I love these stories behind the photographs! I so enjoy this photo...I am a big fan of Herons! They really are magnificent birds. I like the fact that there is nothing in this photo other than the bird. The focus on the bird draws the viewer up close and personal! Brilliant work!! (I wish I had 6 stars for you, because this is such a unique photo!)

:):) He must be a tongue twister!:) great looking close up shot of the bird! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

It's an amazing capture....brilliantly composed...bird is having very cute and funny look....the tongue is adding unusual element to this pic...I like the subtle yellow colour in the face

An excellent nature shot posted here! Your dramatic, full and fine composition captured a very enjoyable moment. That beak and tongue are wonderful. Like the feather detail too! Exposure and sharpness are spot on. Great photo is what I think of your shot!

Wow Susan! Very nice capture of this Grey heron, good timing to capture the open bill! Well focused, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural. I wish there was just a tiny bit more room under his bill. Still this is an awesome shot well presented!

    Thanks a million for your complementary review on this Heron exposing it's tongue as it opened it's beak as I clicked the shutter.
    almost moving it's beak out of the frame.

I don't know what this grey heron is thinking of you, but I think that it is a wonderful stop action with his open beak and unfriendly look; I think that you should have send it to a bird contest; an obvious winner;
outstanding sharp focus and details

    Fred,
    Merci beaucoup mille fois for your complementary review on this Grey Heron giving out because I was not offering it unsuitable food. I'm going to frame it to hang on my wall.
