Green Heron

Green Heron
Green Heron - Curaçao.

"Green herons are one of the few species of animal known to use tools. In particular, they commonly use bread crusts, insects, or other items as bait. The bait is dropped onto the surface of a body of water in order to lure fish. When a fish takes the bait, the green heron will then grab and eat the fish."

Thank you, Barbara. I used a DSLR for this shot, but I have taken plenty of good shots with my point and shoot. Keep shooting.
