Ardea herodias
The great blue heron is a tall gray heron. Black eyebrows extend into several long plumes off the back of head. Long yellow bill. Feathers at base of neck drop down in a kind of necklace. Female same as male. One of the most common herons. Nests in tree tops near or over open water.
This blue heron was spotted on West Point Lake in West Point, Georgia. I managed to capture three different poses. Each makes him seem like a different bird. Amazing.
