Green Heron on Lily Pads

Found this photo I took a few years back of a Green Heron hunting bugs and small fish among Long Lake's lilypads. I followed this particular girl around for about a week and a half, as she always took up residence along the Eastern side of the lake near our house. As you can see, any but the largest of lilypads had a habit of sinking underneath her, and watching her fly/hop between the ones that sunk under her weight was really quite comic.
