Southern Blue Heron

Our friend Jim Gaston at Gaston’s White River Resort has been at it again. He runs a wonderful resort, but I think his true talent is photography! If you have never visited, you absolutely should! Check out their Facebook specials right now!

Check out Jim’s great pics of the mighty Blue Heron on the White River:

I just don’t know that it gets any more spectacular than that. Thank you Jim Gaston for your wonderful photography. He has some great subjects, doesn’t he?

    Very lovely photos.
    I always feel so blessed when I see a heron.
    There just aren’t that many of them around us
    but every now and then we get a nice surprise.
