TITLE: Staying Focused

Finding food – especially in turbulent surroundings – is no easy task.
This image of a Great Blue Heron illustrates the disciplined and calm hunting technique despite a turbulent environment.
The animals typically stand totally motionless at the edge of shallow water to search for small fish in fresh water as well as ocean water environments.
Even with long exposure times of several seconds, this bird remained tack-sharp in the images.
