A close up of a green heron. This elegant bird has dark green feathers on its back, wings (where they’re laced with gold), and the top of its head. Its neck is rust and the throat is rust and white streaked. Its eye is yellow, and its long pointed beak is black with yellow on the bottom.

My #BestOfTheMonth is this #GreenHeron. I just love these guys, and this one let me come pretty close. #BirdOfTheDay #birds #WildlifePhotography #ECK

Rob's @robcrank68.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay theme is #OpenBeak, any bird with its beak open.
This #GreenHeron has an open beak and a little tongue for our viewing pleasure 🤷‍♂️😂. Good thing the birds don't get to pick what photos I post.

The alt #birdoftheday theme is #long necks.

Here is a #greenheron fledgling, practicing hunting techniques like standing still. 😂 #nomatterwhat I love the downy feathers he is still sporting on top of his head. #bird #birder #birding #birdphotography #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography

Green herons are always doing something interesting! I watched this one hop from limb to limb over the Stones River in Murfreesboro, Tn until it found a perfect hunting perch.

Today's Bird of the Day theme is "standing in water", so here's a juvenile green heron ankle deep in Murfree Springs wetlands, with a frog going down the hatch. I call this one "Bad Day for Kermit".

"A stillness settles around the bird as it perches among a cluster of bright green leaves, but the Green Heron itself is anything but still. It’s caught in a moment of quiet grooming, its body curved inward in a graceful arc as its beak slips into the feathers along its shoulder. The pose makes the bird look both elegant and self‑contained, as if it has folded the world away for a moment to tend to itself.

The heron’s plumage is a striking mix of colors that seem to shift with the light. Its back and wings are a deep blue‑gray, almost metallic, with fine feather edges that catch the sun. The neck is a rich chestnut brown, warm and earthy, and the throat carries thin white streaks that draw the eye upward. One bright yellow eye peeks out from the curve of its posture, alert even in this private moment of care.

The leaves around it are vivid and full, framing the bird in fresh green. Behind them, the sky is a clean, open blue, giving the heron’s colors room to stand out. The whole scene feels intimate—an everyday ritual of a wild creature, seen up close, full of texture, color, and quiet purpose." - Microsoft Copilot

This Green Heron (Butorides virescens) was busy with some essential grooming when I spotted it perched atop a long, tall hedge row separating a parking ...
