Description
A pair of Great Blue Herons chase one another across a shallow lagoon. Mating ritual, or lovers' quarrel? The scene is replayed on the stillness of the water's gray surface -- a stillness broken only by the thrashing of the birds, as they run and skip. The front bird, being chased, is full of motion, leaning into the action, barely skimming the surface with its feet. The mate, holding its place, stands hip deep in the pool, wings flared. Behind them both, the green and yellow marsh grass witnesses the scene.
