22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Caught in the act

A black heron was caught by me while trying to steal fishes in the garden pond. I was wondering how come a wild heron flew to my pond considering its feeding ground usually near river or lake. Maybe this is an indicator that fishes are dwindling in the rivers or lakes. Or maybe the heron found stealing is easier than fishing!
