Artist's Comments
The Shot O' The Day. A little Green Heron fishing for his lunch. He's actually a wild visitor to the zoo, but probably never leaves.
I knew they were excellent fishermen, but I didn't realize quite how phenomenal their abilities are. Shortly after I took this shot, he moved a bit to the right, where there was a solid mat of the green duckweed you can see in this shot.
Absolutely nothing was visible through this mat of weed, even at maximum magnification through my lens. At least, nothing was visible to me, not even a ripple. But, he snared three minnows from under that mat in about 30 seconds. He didn't miss once, but I have no idea how he knew they were there.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
The Cutting Edge is a weekly article that features brand new selected high quality art products that caught our eyes. Check out the cutting edge prints some of your fellow artists have submitted in the past week!
