Yes, I'm very fond of those dapper-looking little guys. They are usually quite shy, but this one seemed good with me hanging around.Very nice ! The Night Heron is my fav .
The water looks like a painting , so cool !
I step out my front door not long ago and down at the corner of my property about 150 feet away I saw something large and black .Had a turkey hanging around our place yesterday. I wish I could have managed to get some photos. They are relatively rare around here but becoming more and more common. They were once common throughout most of MN but hunted to extinction. In 1973 the DNR transplanted 29 birds from Missouri and they have been expanding ever since. It is one of the MN DNR's most notable success stories. Today Minnesotans are able to enjoy turkey hunting, harvesting about 10,000 per year.
We have a few of those around here too.I step out my front door not long ago and down at the corner of my property about 150 feet away I saw something large and black .
At first I thought maybe a small black bear then I thought no a really large turkey but then it flapped it wings and took off it was one the many turkey buzzards I see flying overhead on our bluff .
It's very green there, I suppose some kind of algae. Mrs. Barbarian got a really good one of the heron with the footbridge:The water looks like a painting , so cool !
Really like this one very much. The separation with the background sets off the bird.
