Great Blue Heron


A fisherman in Goodland placed a bait fish on the stern of his boat,
to lure a nearby great blue heron.

Always interesting to watch herons stalk their prey. Or in this case a freebie.

It worked! They are such beautiful birds.

Great photos of this beautiful bird. We see these birds in the summer hanging out at our lakes, but can never get this close.

This one looks quite distinctive. I haven't seen one here yet, but they do spend a good part of the year in these parts.

I love the GBHs -- especially when they've nabbed a bite to eat!

The second and third photos show the heron dong what herons are supposed to do.
