Not much opportunity to shoot for this, simply due to schedules. But I do like the shot from the one evening I had to go out. The Wingra river in Madison often houses these beautiful Herons. None were sitting close to shore tonight, but this one was nicely lit by the sun with the interesting background to help showcase the bird.

Great Blue Heron. Lots of habitat. The bird is a small portion of the scene, but I do like environmental images.
