These lovely creatures are often seen watching and standing guard over the beach areas. They wait till all is safe and then feed in the shallows along the beach.
Great blue heron pair |
Notice the left leg is held high? |
These majestic birds have such lovely plumage all year, but the lush feathery beards are in breeding season only.
Aren't I fortunate to get to share space with these birds?
Beautiful birds. We have Herons here, but not as big as that.
ReplyDeleteYou really are lucky! I didn't know they only have their beards during breeding season. I guess they're in the mood for love!
ReplyDeleteI could watch them for hours. Very Karate Kid :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't think of Karate Kid until you suggested it! I love it!
