I’ve often spotted a Green Heron in this patch of reeds; a walking path winds along the edge of a pond providing an interesting, if dark, view of their hunting behavior.

These herons don’t have any problem snagging a snack from this duckweed covered water.

I’m pretty sure I don’t want to know what’s lurking around below the surface.

Here’s a wider view of this Green Heron’s hunting territory. Beyond these reeds the water opens up into a pond.
