Great Blue Heron Pillows

A Great Blue Heron in flight. One of the most well-known birds of Maine, it’s always a treat to see one or two of these massive creatures standing still and dignified at the edge of the sea.

The Heron was staying in front of me on the road. When I came to close it flew up, circled, and landed somewhere behind me. It was there for the wetlands on either side of the road.

Canon Rebel T3i. 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 America and Central America, as well as the Caribbean and the Galápagos Islands. It is a rare vagrant to coastal Spain, the Azores, and areas of far southern Europe. An all-white population found only in the Caribbean and Florida was once treated as a separate species and known as the great white heron. Wilmington, North Carolina USA.

Great Blue Heron Portrait by Debra Martz ........................... Made a trip to Rockport, Texas to go on a boat tour to "hopefully" see the endangered Whooping Cranes. Since we have a ferry along the way, you can't always time the trip easily so we left early not wanting to chance missing the boat. Well, no ferry back up on this morning so while waiting for departure time took a little drive along the frontage road of the bay. Being early morning, there were quite a few birds out feeding and luckily this heron was very near the road right by a small pullout! ...........................
