Videos from yesterday at Burnaby Fraser Foreshore Park, South Burnaby, BC Canada, along the Fraser River. A very new #Heron rookery. Counted at least 3 Heron nests as Lori Batchelor notified us all recently through previous posts. Thanks Lori!

We are pretty much guaranteed to see this #heron on our daily walk in #Squamish. My daughter has named him Jefferton.

It was a grey day but this male Northern Pintail's feathers still looked stunning!

A great blue heron - a large dark blue bird with long yellow legs, long brown neck and a long yellow beak - glides over the surface of flat blue water as it slows before landing. Its big yellow feet hang down at an angle behind it just an inch above the water.
The way great blue herons land in water is so graceful. This one did a nice glide before stopping

A green heron in profile, perched on a boardwalk railing at Green Cay Wetlands in Florida. Its midbody feathers are a rust color in contrast to head, wings, and tail in bluish-green, but the wing feather tips sport a rust-colored outline.
Today’s #BirdOfTheDay is #Feathers showcasing the beauty and intricacies of feathers; alt #BirdInABush any bird in perched in a bush.
Fascinating how the tail feathers of this green heron are outlined in the contrasting color of its chest/neck feathers.

A vertical, artistic portrait of a Grey Heron perched on a branch. The image features a double-exposure effect and a muted, monochromatic sepia and charcoal palette. The heron is turned slightly toward the viewer with a sharp eye in focus, while the rest of the frame is obscured by a dreamlike, hazy texture and soft light leaks, creating a vintage analog aesthetic.
Decided to try a slightly more "artistic" edit with this image of a local Grey #Heron.
What are your thoughts on this kind of photo processing?

A grey heron stands on bright green grass at the water’s edge, wings lifted wide like a soft, feathered cloak. Its layered plumage shows delicate gradients of silver, ash, and charcoal, each feather finely edged and fanned with quiet elegance. The long neck curves slightly as the bird turns its head, revealing a sharp eye and sleek black-and-white markings. In a surreal, almost comical contrast to its natural grace, the heron holds a single McDonald’s French fry in its beak, the bright yellow strip standing out against the muted tones of its feathers and the calm, blurred water behind it.
Good morning. I wonder, does living near a McDonalds affect a Grey Heron’s diet? 🤔 Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Feathers showcasing the beauty and intricacies of feathers. The alt today is #BirdInABush any bird in perched in a bush. #birds #photography #Stunday #Heron #ECK

Great Blue Herons are opportunistic carnivores that eat a wide variety of land animals, including small mammals (mice, voles, chipmunks), reptiles (snakes, lizards), amphibians (frogs, toads, salamanders), insects, and even small birds like ducklings.

Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron perches near the top of a mature tree as a spring storm rolls through Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical black-and-white photograph, a budding tree rises from the bottom to near the top of the frame. In the upper right quadrant, the heron roosts facing the camera, its head turned to the left. The scene is silhouetted against shifting light and dark clouds as the storm moves through.
It is #FlyDay.

Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron flies across a pond at one of my favorite nature areas in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal black-and-white photograph, the heron passes close by from right to left. Its left wing and the rear of its body, including the legs, are cropped out of the frame. The wings are in a downward stroke, and the head plumes trail in motion. The background is softly rippled pond water.
It is #FlyDay and here is a great blue heron flying across the pond at one of my favorite nature areas in Longmont, Colorado.
