Great Blue Heron coming in for a landing @ Bombay Hook NWR

One of the 2 Great Blue Heron that were sharing the Raymond Pool with 56 Great Egrets comes in for a landing. There was some tall marsh grass in the way as you can see in the bottom of the frame.

From my Monday 7-6-2009 trip to the Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge outside of Smyrna, Delaware.
