Great Blue Heron, various locations Texas.


The Great Blue Heron. A very cool bird, he sits and just looks around like he owns the place. He will not let you get to close before flying off. Very pretty bird, common in the US. 

Great Blue Heron can conceal themselves easily and sometimes are not noticed. If you get too close they will just fly away. They fly like a stork but their necks are pulled in, and not straight out like a Stork. 

At least three Great Blue's hiding in the woods. They like to eat fish and frogs. So they stay close to streams, ponds, lakes, and rivers.
This big boy was caught in a pond/marsh of a cattle Ranch in East Texas. 
I did not notice the Blue Heron in the back ground until I put the picture on my computer. I noticed it standing in the back. They will stand very still and sometimes they are just not noticed.
