11May2024: Charlie Elliott Wildlife Management Area - Mansfield, Georgia, USA 

Green herons played nicely as I approached quietly in my kayak on Fox Lake. The later green heron photos (on the forked stick) were about 15 ft from the boat ramp as I was heading back to the vehicle. I drifted into the ramp and beached myself and watched for a while until a vehicle approached and spooked it off.

The osprey was hiding up in the trees on to the east of the nest pole with this large fish. The sun was nearly behind it, but filtering through the green leaves. That left an odd tint in the image, but it cleaned up nicely with a little white balance adjustment.
