Five Photos, Five Stories Challenge (Day 5)

Thank you to El from FAR OUT IN AFRICA and Lori of  Let There be Peace on Earth for inviting me to join in. If you haven’t already, do give visit their blogs.

“The rules of Five Photos, Five Stories Challenge require you to post a photo each day for five consecutive days and attach a story to the photo (It can be fiction or non-fiction, a poem or simply a short paragraph) and then nominate another blogger to carry on this challenge. Accepting the challenge is entirely up to the person nominated, it is not a command.”

This is the final day of this challenge and I would like any one that would like to join in this great challenge to do so!

Grey heron, Bloureier [Afrikaans]

It generally favours shallow water bodies, such as estuaries, lagoons, rivers, lakes, marshes and dams. It mainly eats fish, using three different hunting techniques: it can wait at one spot for prey to come within striking distance; it can walk carefully through shallow water before catching their prey, or it just drops into the water from the air.
