A Great Blue Heron that gave me a great opportunity.
Standing in the same spot I have been countless times before, and he just slowly flew right by.
This bird is not quite ready for mating season.
Directly in front of his eye, the lore, will turn a bright blue as part of the breeding colors. It’s not there yet.
It is such a small part of a big bird, but when there it’s hard to miss.
So majestic, aren’t they!!?Nice flight shot.
Thank you. We have a rookery nearby that is just about getting ready for the spring…should be plenty of practice for these shots.
