After the flying shrimp incident the Great Blue Heron decided it was time to move on. Usually the herons will bend their knees just before lifting off giving the photographer a hint of imminent action and this turned out to be the case.
One strong beat of his wings and he was on his way.
He disappeared down the canal with a big squawk, staying close to the water.
