The tide was almost out and this Green Heron was looking for a snack in the shallow water along the edge of the river.

I missed the catch but captured the meal being swung about.

Then, instead of eating the fish right away the heron took it for a walk.

He kept right on walking into some reeds at the edge of the river, out of my sight.

Don’t recall seeing a photo of the green heron with its crest raised before. Nice action shots!

The Green Heron can be pretty comical looking when he gets that crest up, Liz. Thanks, glad you liked them.

Thanks, Belinda! He put on quite a show and I was fortunate to be passing by when he wasn’t looking.
