I watched this heron for about an hour yesterday going from place to place. The great blue heron is the largest heron in North America and has a wingspan of about 6 feet. When it spreads its wings, it is a beautiful sight.

Gorgeous capture Maralee, love the color !
Very nice. They are impressive birds. I was lucky to catch one doing a couple of lunges into the water recently, and I should share them because the wings were also impressively deployed.
A glorious picture.
Gorgeous image, Maralee. It really celebrates his wingspan!
