Great Blue

As I took yesterday's Blip of the Canada Goose, I saw a Great Blue Heron soar over my head. Interesting...

Today, we passed by the same mall and saw many geese grazing along the side of the pond, as well as others swimming in the pond. As I looked around, there was a Blue Heron, standing amongst the geese!

I have a notion this Heron actually lives at this little mall pond. It seems incredible to me, particularly since a noisy, heavily-trafficked road runs nearby. Apparently. the waterfowl can become acclimated to such distractions!
