Doug:

The flash was a Metz 32ct7 which I stuck out one of the lens snouts on my
blind and pointed in the general direction.  It was just resting on the
cloth snout, so aiming was not that great.  The snout was probably three
feet to the left of the snout my 105-280 was sticking out.

My wife just came down to tell me to look in the back yard to see a great
blue heron.  We live on a lake, but have not seen any around this lake
before.  They usually hang out around the tidal marshes of the Ocean.  No
hope of getting pictures as he flew away when he heard me open the door
slightly.

Regards,

Robert
