18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Purple heron with fish catch
Catch of the day!! The purple heron was in a still pose for a long time with an eye on its prey and I just waited for the moment. Suddenly it pierces a fish out of the mud and started flying away with pride showing its gorgeous wing display
