Heron's Dispute !

In the Northwest we are lucky to have a good population of Heron's and Eggrets. The Blue Heron is specially abundant along the wetlands of western Washington. I've grown to really like the Blue Heron, its got grace, beauty and elegant in thier movements but can react and swiftly attack other Heron's over territory disputes. I was able to capture one such dispute recently at the Edmonds Marsh Wetlands in Edmonds WA. the whole 'attack' took about 85 seconds, yes they can be fast. Enjoy !
