Finally! For some reason it has taken almost 2 years to catch one again. Green Heron have no lips, that’s obvious. Which begs the question… why do they lick their lips.
I have caught them before but not recently. However, wait for it…

He’s getting ready…

And some lip lapping.
Enter Green Heron in the search box on this site and scroll through the articles. I never marked any text with the lapping thing, but just look. You’ll see they actually do this as a habit.
