Ardea herodias
Today I have a collection of Ardea herodias photographs. That’s just a fancy way of saying more heron pictures. One could say that I am obsessed with them, and they would probably be right. As long as they keep posing for me, I will keep taking their photos. Enjoy the shots!
Wilton House Museum
Today I have some photos of the Wilton House Museum in Richmond. This estate was originally owned by William Randolph III.

I Just Think Herons Are Neat
For today’s post, I have some photos I took of some herons with my new lens. I managed to capture a sequence of one heron catching a fish. It did eventually eat the fish, but I was unable to photograph that part as it went under a tree. The last few shots are of itContinue reading “I Just Think Herons Are Neat”
Quoth The Ravens
Today I have some photos of ravens I took with my new lens. We seem to have a large population of them here in Richmond. I always love seeing them. I hope you like the shots!
