    Is this a great universe or what? You're a wee fishie swimming along and zap, you're a heron's dinner. I don't get it.

    Nice photos, though and great fireworks pic!

    Really hot up there, huh? It's warm here, too, now.

    That Heron looks pretty happy with his meal. I may have to go out and "catch" dinner tonight myself. I'm thinking more along the lines of Chinese take out tho.

    Herons are so imperial-looking. I suppose that doesn't matter to the little fishies unfortunate enough to be caught.
