We moved closer and I got the shot lined up so the head and the reflection were both in the frame...but I was so excited by being so close, and a tad unfamiliar with the lens' focusing characteristcs, so I (blush) forgot to refocus. With shorter focal length lenses I could get away with it. Not the 560 wide open, anyway! So while I have the blue heron perfectly framed, he's completely out of focus.
