We Have Cool Birds 'n Stuff


Imagine my surprise when I turned the corner beyond my tool shed and laid eyes on this guy (or girl) today. It's a Great Blue Heron I believe and it's an amazing bird. When it opens its wings and flies over the house it quite literally blocks out the sun. It also seems to be extremely conceited. You can tell that this guy thinks he's the bomb. He even walks with his nose (beak) up in the air.

So why is our guest here? I guess our overabundance of frogs has brought him to the banks of our humble pond. An example of nature in balance but it's a shame that some froggies are gonna have to pay with their lives. Look out Kermit - Mr. Pompous is about to turn you into an appetizer.
