The heron on the ice pond

johngregsite Posted on 3-Jul-2019 by john3-Jul-2019

This heron has been seen on this dock on the east side of the ice pond, just below the Allen estate. During a late afternoon, I was walking along the south end of the pond and notice him there. After waiting for a while with my 200mm lens equipped camera, I took a chance to walk back to the house and get my 600mm lens and tripod.

With some luck, he had not moved by the time I got back. So here is my 600mm shot. The bird remained standing for quite a while and, then, he took a bow! You can see it here!

After his bow, he then walked off stage.

Exit, stage right!

Birds on the island

During our recent visit to Connecticut there were the usual opportunities for bird watching. On the walk over to Money Point, we found this yellow-crowned night heron on the beach (or right-of-way, to be accurate) talking to a gull.
