Blue Heron

From Wikipedia...

The Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) is a large wading bird in the heron family Ardeidae, common near the shores of open water and in wetlands over most of North and Central America.

All I know is we were out on the deck when this large bird came swooping in(there is really no other word for it). It came down into our yard and landed on the roof of our neighbor's shed.




I have seen herons on the river when I would go out paddling, but never in a neighborhood.....wild in the city. LOVE IT!
