Mirror on the Marsh

Reflection – A mirror on the marsh at the Indiana Dunes National Park.

A great blue heron bending its neck while standing in shallow water, with its reflection visible on the water's surface, surrounded by green vegetation.

  1. great capture

    1. Thanks, Cath. 😊

  2. Reflections give you two images for the price of one, so to speak. I visited this area a decade ago, when it was a Indiana Dunes National Seashore but not yet National Park.

    1. Gotta love reflections. Glad you visited the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore. It got a whole lot busier as soon as it became a National Park. Thanks for taking the time to comment, Steve. 😊

  3. Perfect reflection!

    1. Thanks! It was the perfect place to be. 😊

  4. This is a perfect reflection of the heron preening!

    1. Right time, right place. The water was still and the lighting was perfect. πŸ˜‰

      1. Calm is always good for reflections and you got the entire heron in that reflection.

        1. I did, I did! 😁

  5. What a beauty!

  6. I love photos that have a reflection. They tug at my soul!

    1. They tug at mine too. πŸ˜‰

  7. I wonder whether birds see their reflections and if so, do they realize the reflections are of them? This is an excellent shot, Pepper.

    1. I have wondered the exact same thing often, Janet. Great Blue Herons seem so focused on their catch, I don’t think they notice their own reflection. πŸ€”

  8. I love the heron’s pose and this delightful moment you captured, Pepper. Thank you.
