Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) Photographed in Sun City Center, Florida
Whether poised at a river bend or cruising the coastline with slow, deep wingbeats, the Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) is a majestic sight. This stately heron with its subtle blue-gray plumage often stands motionless as it scans for prey or wades belly deep with long, deliberate steps. They may move slowly, but Great Blue Herons can strike like lightning to grab a fish or snap up a gopher. In flight, look for this widespread heron’s tucked-in neck and long legs trailing out behind.
