This guy is closer to the road than usual. I think the Ospreys have scared the Great Blue Herons back deeper into the woods at Fort Pickens in the past couple of years.
But once the Ospreys migrate out of here for the winter, the GBHs have the run of the place and can hangout wherever they want.
Until March, of course. Then the rowdies all come back home for nesting season.
