    I took this picture about 3 or 4 weeks ago and wanted to post it and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to my many friends on Nikonites. The white thing to the bottom left side of the star on the tree is the moon.

    I shot this image from my car. This Blue Heron was across the road and on the other side of a bayou when I spotted him blending in with the marsh grass.
