    I never saw a GBH looking like that before. Unique shot, I don't know if I should be grateful or scared. :D

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    It's not a Great Blue. It's actually a different bird called the Goliath Heron. They're found in Africa, or in my case, the Cleveland Zoo.:D

    It was a very sunny day, so a full bodyshot wouldn't expose very well, plus it would give you a zoo shot look.

    Thanks for sharing.
