Karen and I have noticed now that spring is here and the good weather is back, so are our Great Blue Herons. Last year we had at least a couple of Great Blue Herons frequenting our pond and fishing the banks. Some say to scare them off to protect the aquatic life, but they are so majestic to watch. Over the winter, sightings became more rare, but they are back! Here is one I caught this morning sitting in a branch overlooking the pond.

Click any picture and it will open up a slideshow or gallery.

They are so alert, when I poked my head out to take a photo he got spooked and flew off to the neighboring pond.

What a good way to start the day.

Enjoy yours,

Michael
