This Little Blue Heron will soon have its adult plumage. They are really beautiful during this stage of their life.......

    Another Little Blue Heron in the mist of changing its color phase was on the other side of the same wetlands cell walking on a log.........

    Crawdads, a southern tradition for dinner, is also a favorite meal for the Little Blue Heron.

    Thanks for posting, Ira. I've never seen a juvenile Little Blue Heron before. Love the crawdad shot. Best, Pam

    Good set of images of an excellent subject. I would have adjusted the expsoure by a third on those captures.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Very nice images Ira, I love the colours when their plumage is changing to an adult stage.
