I'm guessing a king fisher. I see these at the river near my daughters house when I go for walks. Great capture!

Adorable bird and you did a fabulous job with your camera.
I used to see a cute eron in a park near my home,but I'm so worried about him because since some weeks he is not there.I wonder if he could fly away...but I really don't know.I hope he is fine.

Lovely captures, though he doesn't look very green to me, apart from the eye-stripe. You do take some very clear photographs - beautiful!

Cool photos! I wish I could get some great shots of birds, but I don't have much luck when it comes to photographing birds. lol
Thanks so much for stopping by and linking up. Don't forget to come on back and see if you guessed right with yesterday's mystery photo. Have a great day.

Wonderful shots of the heron. You have such beautiful photography. I'm catching up with blogging as work has been busy. I've missed some great shots.

Hi Eileen,
I enjoyed your photos. I think I've said this before, but you sure get to see some awesome places and critters.

I love that butterfly with the thistles, too.
