This Heron was gasping for breath while hiding in the cane.
As good a place as any. Some shade and there was certain to be food around in there.
Just short of three hours out there, this was the only wildlife. That was when I began the trip back out to the car…and air conditioning.
We are also having for a few days a heat wave and it’s hot in the refuge for birds. This is a very wise Little Blue. I hope soon the temperature goes down and he will feel much better.
You are hardier than me! In this heat I only dare venture onto my back patio, and only for 20 minutes at that!
I have scaled back, a lot. This summer is a notch above what I can take for any amount of time 😂
