Blue heron FLYING out of my photo
Truth be told, I had originally stopped to take a photo of the bridge but wish I had seen the heron before it heard me. It almost FLEW away before my lens caught it!
FLYING swans at sunset over the harbour at Hamilton, Ontario
The swans were FLYING and our car was too! We were driving along the highway at about 90 k.p.h. (55 m.p.h.) and these swans were FLYING FASTER than that, so to capture a photo of them, I rolled down the window and quickly took this shot.
FLYING goose
This shot was easier to get because I was standing in a FIELD and the goose FLEW over.

At least you got the blue heron on the photo, and it's beautiful, I think! And the swans and the goose. Especially I liked the photo ot the goose! :)
ReplyDeleteYou got some great shots of them flying!
ReplyDeleteWhat great shots of those beautiful birds!
ReplyDeleteGreat timing in capturing the blue heron in flight. That is a great bridge photo too.
ReplyDeleteThe birds in flight are totally amazing.
ReplyDeleteBirds in flight look so majestic!
ReplyDeleteDid the heron squawk at you? they make the funniest sound!
Great pics : )
What fun it is finding you here this week. We are off on Friday with my son, his family, and our best friend for Halloween weekend to hike in Douthat State Park - be back Monday. There is no wi-fi, TV, or cell phone signal out there...just gorgeous scenery and lots and lots of trails for hiking and biking - so will be off the radar for a bit. Your heron flying and the swan photos are wonderful as all of yours are. Will take lots of shots to bring home though they will never be nearly as fine as yours. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteNice shot, EG. I have a hard time with flying birds because by the time I get them in my viewfinder all I see is the tail end.
ReplyDeleteThe pic with the Heron is very nice. MB
You've captured these birds really well. Certainly adds a bit of grace and beauty in motion!
ReplyDeleteAll wonderful shots, I especially like the first two ones.
ReplyDeleteYes, the 20th century seems like ages ago!
I love to run across a heron! Great flying pics :-)
ReplyDeleteI sat and looked at this photo for several minutes. It has many elements to it and I found it fascinating. It seems to be perfectly balanced with the colors of autumn in all the various planes.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, I've seen flying herons and geese but never swans.

Nice pictures. A blue heron lives at my grandmother's summer home. We see him all the time. After flamingos, they're my favorite birds.
ReplyDeleteI love the sense of motion you captured in these photos! Absolutely lovely fall pictures.
