Description

Our neighborhood is "blessed" with a yellow-crowned night heron nursery. They are noisy and very messy but move on soon after the fledglings can survive.

Awesome Bonnie - how fortunate to have such a beautiful bird in your neighborhood. We have herons here but they are frequent and usually are in the opposite side of the river. The detail on this is terrific! And perfect timing to get this pose #12034375
