We see a lot of herons here in Florida (where I go) but not many Green Herons.
So it was a thrill to see so many at Reed Bingham State Park.
The first one I saw was in the lake near where we were camped.
I got to see him every day that we were there.
But what was a special treat was on the other side of the lake.
We drove over just about every evening after dinner to see what we could see.
And I watched 2 adult Green Herons one evening.
And lo and behold, two young ones came out to greet me the next night.
The sun was low so the light isn't great.
But what a surprise to get to stand on the boardwalk and watch these little ones.
The whole family was on the edge of the water.
This is where I saw the monster gator on another trip but he was in hiding. Which was fine by me!
A few more photos standing in that same spot and looking the other direction!
This park has the most variety of birds I've ever seen.
And it can be very different from one side of the lake to the other.
Great Blue Heron
What types of herons do you normally see?
