tric colored heron

Very nice. ; I love watching them hunt for fish - such different tactics among the various waders - GBHs tend to stand more still and stab, wood storks put out a wing to create shade and cut reflections then kick their feet until the fish arrive in their shadow, green herons will sit perfectly still on a branch perched over the water for minutes or hours until the perfect time to take a lunge, least bitterns stalk and follow fish by reed walking above them...tricolor herons are by far the most manic - wading around, chasing, squawking, flapping wings, and seemingly never standing still!
