And now for something completely different: the magic of being at the right place, at the right time. A wily old Heron in mid-flight over the Potomac falls where Maryland waves hello to Virginia just on the other side, and Virginia responds by taking a selfie with one of those long stick thingies. The magic of almost being in two places at once except for the fast flowing water in-between making a clear division in what’s left and what is right.
Potomac Falls, Maryland, USA, April 2016.

It’s an impressive waterfall. We also see a lot of Great Blue Herons around these parts, especially at the falls. Although they do get dwarfed by the immense size of the Potomac river, and the huge boulders and trees that litter it.
Your pond and it’s wildlife is still very impressive. 😉
