| Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) stands in shallow water. Its long legs are partially submerged, and it has a prominent S-shaped neck and pointed beak. The plumage is predominantly gray-blue with long, delicate feathers on the back. The water's surface reflects the bird, creating a mirrored image. Patches of vegetation float on the water, and the heron appears to be focused, possibly hunting for fish or aquatic insects. This bird is native to North and Central America. |
