I'll not try to keep up with those of you using fancy expensive cameras but I spotted this Great Blue Heron at the edge of the pond behind the barn yesterday. I've not seen one this time of year but a little research says they are year round residents here. Nikon Coolpix 610, 60x optical zoom...

Lots of fine detail in that picture. Your iPhone camera is better than mine ;)

Lots of great pictures but this one: WOW!
