Heron Thinks About a Vacation

[yourlibrarian]

We got our first snow of the season yesterday, and I don't think the heron much appreciated it. I can't remember ever seeing one late in the year -- probably because when the lakes freeze over it can't fish. So I imagine it will be heading off as there is more snow today.

I'm also surprised the snow shows up so clearly -- but they were pretty thick flakes.

Wonderful photos! The poor heron looks so cold and miserable.

Yes, it does not look happy about shaking out a winter coat!
