… Great Blue Heron with an interesting pattern of shadows on his back. This young guy was just hanging out near the bike trail Monday.
It’s interesting that during this time of year the bird populations worth watching are the Pelicans and GBHs. The Great Blues are especially visible because they’re more out in the open. When the Ospreys return, they’ll be driven back into the trees that are deeper in the forest and away from the roads and trails.
I love this picture. He’s scary!
Only if you let him get close enough to spear your hand or foot with that huge beak. That sucker is razor sharp!
