We were driving home the other night when I saw this beautiful Great Blue Heron out of the corner of my eye. He was standing on the banks of the salt marsh looking for dinner. I quickly drove home and got my camera. Luckily, he was still there a few minutes later.
The Great Blue Heron is my favorite bird…. so beautiful and elegant and regal. It always “makes my day” when I see “Blue” flying up in the sky…or sitting by the creek waiting for dinner.

The Blue Heron
by Bliss Carman
…I see the great blue heron
Rising among the reeds
And floating down the wind,
Like a gliding sail
With the set of the stream…
The great blue heron is indeed one of the most beautiful and majestic birds on the planet!!
What a spectacular shot, Mel!!
I agree! I think they are just beautiful!
