The Green Heron is one of my favorite birds to photograph because they don't seem to have a bad angle. They are photogenic all the time and they know how to pose.

Brasília, Brasil
Green and gold are Australia's national colours. As one of the oldest little towns in Australia, it is fitting that I use this Evandale garden to create some photo art that captures these colours. The double sun star is actually the same one at the point the zoom begins and ends. On the right you can catch a glimpse of the old house through the leaves.
PHOTO NOTE: This photograph is produced manually in camera through a photo zoom (and in this case also without a tripod). While this would not be considered "pure photography" by Ansel Adams (what digital photography could?), I want to remain true to the spirit of his dogma: I do not believe in the use of apps to create effects, replace skies or do anything other than to enhance the information already present in the RAW files. But what others choose to do is their business and fine with me.
Ryburn Reservoir
We were previously on this particular path around the reservoir on the 24th March, at that time there was just a few green shoots starting to appear on the trees. A few weeks later and the difference is clear to see, everywhere is lush and green, the only sounds are those of the Canada geese who seem to reside around here on a permanent basis, the ducks, and the bleating of lambs on the hillsides both behind and opposite.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are great appreciated.
THANK YOU ALL MY KIND FLICKR FRIENDS,
YOUR COMMENTS AND INVITATIONS ARE
VERY APPRECIATED AND MOTIVATING.

You are so dandy, you're sweet as candy....🍥
I experimented with different lighting, sunlight, lamplight, I also experimented with the aperture setting. I found F5 worked very well in this ight. I was able to zero in on the green candy
I was finally able to get a shot of this beautiful bird! Here is some information about about them...
The heron you’re most likely to see in North America is the tall Great Blue Heron. But this stately bird has a much smaller and more secretive relative — the Green Heron.
This chunky, short-legged heron is about a foot and a half long, maybe about a third of the size of its larger cousin. And it’s a deep forest-green color, with a chestnut-colored neck.
The Green Heron forages for fish and small amphibians on the banks of small bodies of fresh water, using its plumage to camouflage itself amid the trees and shrubs. It perches, body horizontal and stretched forward over the water, still as a statue, waiting for small fish to come close.
Now, here’s the really cool part. This heron sometimes uses “bait” to lure its prey. It will break twigs into pieces small enough to make convincing lures and then cleverly drop them onto the water’s surface. Sometimes, instead of a stick, the heron will use a feather or even a live insect. Then the bird hunkers down and waits for an unsuspecting fish to swim close.
The Great Blue Heron may be easier to see, but be sure to keep an eye out for the small — and clever — Green Heron.
On our way back from Laguna Lejía, green grasses had grown in the desert thanks to the melting of the snow that had fallen a few hours earlier on our way in.
The small dry lake in the foreground is located 8 km (5 mi) west of Laguna Lejía.
The mountain behind it is Cerro Negro de Barriales (4665 m).
Laguna Lejía (Bleach Lagoon) is a salt lake in the Atacama Desert.
It is located in the Chilean Altiplano, in the Antofagasta Region,
100 km (62 mi) southeast of San Pedro de Atacama,
at an altitude of 4325 m (14,200 ft).

A few days ago I found a Green Heron hunting at the edge of the Marina in Morro Bay - a happy surprise for me.
