The Great Blue Heron has always been a fascinating bird to me. I do not like them invading my favorite fishing areas, but they are such a beautiful graceful bird in flight. Their colors change with the season and are always beautiful. Here a young one flies along the shore of Henrys Lake.
Several years ago this one speered a catfish and wore it for at least two days.
Here a young one hunts for minnow in the shallows.
This adult is chasing a rodent in a stubble field near Rexburg, but did not catch it.
Just another year around resident bird of Madison County.
