In search of a sunset I spotted this blue heron on his way home after a hard days work. There is a heron rookery tree nearby. So far I haven't gotten close enough for pictures of the rookery but someday, maybe?
I didn't get my sunset that night but in the morning I spotted the sunrise from my window, jumped out of bed and grabbed my camera.

These are great captures; the heron is magnificent. I feel a special bond with these birds. Serene colors in the 2nd; it looked like a gorgeous day was breaking.
Wow, awesome photo of a beautiful bird in flight! Those sunrise colors are breathtaking...good thing you were awake to photograph that gorgeous scene :)
Great captures Martha, thanks for sharing.
Have a great weekend!

Beautiful heron in flight.
And a lovely sunrise, too.
Love seeing the heron in flight. The sunrise is lovely.
first photo: i thought that was close enough.
What a majestic bird. And your sunrise shot is fantastic, wish I had that type of view from my bedroom window.
That sunrise is a great backdrop for the starkness of the tree! Glad you jumped out of bed.
I love the heron in flight!! Beautiful sunrise color also.
Every time a heron flies over me I'm without my camera--so I'm obviously envious of this shot. I also appreciate your bare tree/sky composition, too. Looks like we have a number of interests in common, so I'll be back. Nice pix, nice blog.
I love the heron shot but the other one is equally great!
Ahhh...beautiful!
Great captures, Martha!
Pretty sunrise! I love how the colors are so vivid. I usually see the sunrise in my rear window on the way to wrok. I love weekends when I am home and can see sunrise and sunset in the beautiful mountains!
Happy First Day of Spring!
