Great Heron Visits Us


I've often seen the Great Blue Heron across the lake, but lately he has visited our yard! I was excited to be able to get these pictures.

Sharing with Saturday's Critters
and The Bird D'Pot

Uh oh, he saw me! And away he goes!

  5. My dear Linda,
    you have to know that we live on the banks on a river where so many Great Blue Herons, together with storks, live ... maybe he's one of them who has come and visit you {{smiles}} !

    Enjoy the remainder of your Sunday, sweet friend,
    sending love to you
