This is a photo from the past. Call it a Great Blue Heron Grooming. What a cool bird. I was lucky enough to capture this moment while out on a walk, and it really reminded me of how beautiful nature can be.

Great Blue Tucked Away

This is a bit different. We were heading home, and as we approached a pond just off the road, I slowed down to see if any wildlife was hanging out. It’s not often we spot something, but I was surprised to see a great blue heron tucked behind a bush. She wasn't very visible, but I stopped the car and was able to capture this photo. Very cool.

A Board Meeting?

I’m not entirely sure what’s happening here, but it looks like a very serious board meeting. The Great Blue Heron is clearly the CEO, standing tall and trying to maintain some semblance of order. Meanwhile, the Canada Geese are the unruly department heads, probably arguing about who gets the last of the breadcrumbs. I just hope they reach a consensus before the heron loses its patience!
