Breakfast At Brazos Bend

I was tooleying around 40-Acre Lake at this park, tripod and camera set up and pointing out toward the wetlands next to the lake.  All of a sudden, I saw a flurry of feathers from the corner of my eye.  Aiming my camera in that direction, I managed to capture a series of photos of a great blue heron and it’s eel breakfast.

Camera data:  Canon 1DX, Canon 100-400mm lens (at the 400mm focal length – the resulting original images were ultimately cropped by about 50%), ISO 250, shutter 1/800, f8
