We are fortunate that our community has so much open space, so many places where we can view natures creatures. We've been going to the ponds lately, to enjoy the variety of wildlife. It's a little far for our daily walk so we try to combine it with other errands.
Almost gone the sun
Heron waits, still on duty
Shadows stretch to night
There are more shadows to be found at Shadow Shot Sunday, hosted for us by Tracy at Hey Harriet.

Martha, I love this line: "Shadows stretch to night" He looks like a sentinel.
Amazing shot! La
That is one fine and proud looking bird! It comports itself well, balancing on those spindly legs. The shape from tail to bill looks lovely in both subject and shadow...
Great shadow shot and really like the haiku.
Beautiful shots and great shadow captures. The Great Blue is a beautiful bird.
Beautiful model for shadow.
Green Bottle Shadows

I like the lighting ON the heron in the first photograph. The shadows are quite nice too.
Hey, Martha!
Love the heron shot. They are amazing birds. Tried to rescue one once and it was a disaster but I learned a lot about what not to do next time.
We see them on the river a lot and around ponds here.
Happy thanksgiving,
Gina
WOW! Not only did you capture the heron twice but you also got great shadows too!
Great photo. Herons look so ancient to me.
Beautiful! Your Great Blue Herons cast a magnificent shadow.
Beautiful heron and shadows!
These are stunning! Especially love the first one!
Simply gorgeous heron, light, shadows and haiku!
Great capture of a magnificent bird, which casts an appropriately bold shadow.
