Yesterday at my local marshland park, this Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) seemed to be dancing—I think he was rocking to the sounds of “Walk This Way” by Aerosmith.

Looks a little like a moon walk
Ours seem to have a kind of lurch in their step.
He looks not unlike Steve Tyler too.
My smile for the morning 🙂
Great pics! I was in a birding group one time. All weren’t birders. One woman said, “What an ugly bird.” meaning a great blue heron. Needless to say, I was shocked!
