A Watchful Eye Photograph - Limited Edition of 5

I spotted this heron about 100 meters from where I was hiking. The bird was straddling some rocks in a stream, with the water flowing beneath it...spying for food to snatch from the water. This photo was taken in November, so food was starting to get scarce. I slowly rounded on the bird's position and figured I would attempt to get as close as possible for a shot. It seemed as if the heron did not want to give up its fishing spot because I was able to ever so slowly move to within about 10 meters of its position and it did not fly off. I appreciated the good fortune afforded me by my wild companion, and obtained this detailed shot of the bird keeping a sharp eye on me. My general rules for nature photography include trying to avoid forcing wildlife to leave whatever position they may have, so I backed off and went on my way. Getting close enough to capture the fine detail and structure of animals is always a thrill.
