Description
When I was a kid I found an injured great blue heron at a marsh near my home. I reached down to pick it up. Its head moved back and then swung forward in a flash. That big dagger-like beak hit me right between the eyes and knocked me on my butt. I used a very long lens for this image :) - Davis County, Utah.

Another fantastic photograph! I love how you've emphasized the length of this heron's neck for this unusual image.

I love odd captures and this is perfect. A minimalist shot that says exactly what this bird can do.
