Always make me smile :) and you certainly brighten my day :hamster: it looks like the Heron fell off his perch :lol: what a little beauty!

I love the abstract art too, you could sell your images Derek, you are an artist with a camera.

I had to look at that Heron a few times before I figured out what was doing on there :)

Nice set of photos as always.
