A great find by Paul Trodd of two Purple Herons at the Long Pits today. It took me a while to see one of the two well enough for some photos and then I had my camera settings totally wrong. 80th sec at 100ISO at F13!!! How does that happen?! Thank goodness for Topaz sharpening software. Anyway, I did manage to see one of the Purple Herons on the deck albeit for a moment and then some nice flight views in great afternoon light.

The long staying female Long-tailed Duck remains on Burrowes but always distant, generally associating with Tufted Ducks.
