When I first observed a Great Blue Heron land in a tree,
I was, to be honest, shocked!
You'd think that it would have been a no brainer,
it is a bird and birds do have a tendency to sit in trees...
but such BIG birds?
One time while crossing the Chesapeake Bay in my little boat,
there was a Great Blue Heron riding a channel marker.
It was spinning clockwise - aroundandaroundandaround -
and then counter clockwise - aroundandaroundandaround!
Our approach didn't phase her, she just kept on spinning!
Big Bird at play!
