Just as my bus crossed over the bridge
at the Broad Ripple Canal, I looked over to see
this heron standing beside towpath to the canal.
I got off the bus a few feet further on
and found the bird had not been startled away.
I got my camera out of my backpack and was able
to get a few pictures of the heron.
He was only about twenty-five feet away.
Generally, they seem to be very shy creatures
flying away at the first appearance of a human
(this one, anyway), so I count myself lucky
to have gotten this shot of a bit of
Indy's urban wildlife.

He or she must have been more interested in fishing than flying.
Glad to have you back posting here. When you don't post for weeks on end, I worry.
