Green Herons (Butorides virescens) have so much personality packed into their small bodies. This one almost seemed to be smiling as it flew by me last weekend at Huntley Meadows Park. Perhaps it was just my imagination running away with me.

Imagination … conjures Egypt. Strikingly beautiful, Mike.
Thanks, Bonnie. You have such a beautiful way with words. Many of my viewers, I suspect, are primarily interested in my photos, but a select few like you pay a lot of attention to my prose as well. On some days I think that I use my images as a pretext for my writing. 🙂
Wow! It’s a rare treat when I get to see one walking around looking for breakfast. I’ve never seen one in flight. Beautiful
Thanks. We are blessed to have a boardwalk that through the middle of portions of the wetland at the park, so we sometimes get to see these little herons at pretty close range.
