Green Herons,
Butorides virescens, are small migratory Herons that live near shallow water, and are one of the few birds that use tools, dropping feathers, insects, or bread crusts into the water to lure fish near them. Source:

It is amazing to me that when Green Herons extend their necks they are twice as tall!
Have a wonderful day!

ReplyDeleteThe Green Heron is one of my many favorite, great captures.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
He's a beauty!
ReplyDeleteLove the greens. We only have the blues!
ReplyDeleteIt would be convenient to have an extendible neck like that! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThese are such gorgeous creatures! I had no idea they extended their necks like that, wow!
ReplyDeleteI am excited to see your corner at 'My Corner of the World' this week! Thanks for linking up.
I've seen green herons but not with their necks up like that.
