This Green Heron was at a small pond in Encinitas recently. It was an overcast day so the maroon and greenish hues are quite muted. Egrets and herons are photogenic birds. They are large and often allow
close approach. So, after the first half-a-hundred photos of each bird
it's hard to get something unique to get excited about. However, I thought the rusty grate to the large drain matched the heron's colors nicely and provided an interesting artistic accent that is lacking in many of my "documentary style" bird photos. Plus, it kind of follows the
Rules of Thirds.
