Green Heron in Mangrove

Several Green Herons were being elusive in the mangroves at the edge of a pond. I caught this fellow by surprise, for both of us.

  1. Green Herons always seem to have more personality than their bigger brethren and your photos really capture the emotional range of this energetic little heron.

      1. I finally spotted my first Green Heron of the year and just posted some photos. “My” Green Heron was calm and well behaved, but I am looking forwards to seeing some with “sass.” 🙂
