Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron comes up empty-beaked after diving for a fish at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, a great blue heron fills the frame in right profile, with most of its body cropped from view. Its neck and head burst upward from the water after an unsuccessful strike, sending droplets and splashes in every direction. The heron's reflection is mirrored in the rippled surface below. The foreground and background consist entirely of pond water reflecting the lush green foliage of mature trees growing along the opposite shoreline. Darker reflections from the trees' shadows add contrast and depth to the scene. This dynamic action photograph captures the split-second aftermath of a missed fishing attempt, illustrating both the patience and persistence of a great blue heron in the wetland habitat that is essential to its survival.
