Wild Bird Wednesday and
Wednesday Around The World

Great Blue Herons,
Ardea Herodias, are the largest of the North American Herons. They stand motionless or wade slowly through the water searching for fish, their main source of food.
They are my favorite birds; their stillness makes them easy to photograph!
Have a wonderful day!

They are a favorite of mine, too. I saw one yesterday standing in a shallow pond, but by the time DC got the truck stopped and reversed, it was gone. Would have been a great shot. I usually only see them on the edge of the water. Happy Holidays!
ReplyDelete...great up close and personal.

It is always a thrill to spot one! Great pics, Lea!
ReplyDeleteGreat pic of the heron!
ReplyDeleteI love great blue herons! They are only still until they see me; then they fly off so quickly I barely catch a blur!
