About This Image

this is the young heron, as he came too close to the wires near us. There are red plastic "flags" to help them see the wires, so he didn't hit them, but he seemed somewhat inexperienced and landed in that small tree shown in the earlier photo, a few frames later. Maybe it was his first solo flight.

wanted to add, that these wires have now been removed, and the wiring is underground now, in that area, so the herons won't have to negotiate around the wires now, as they depart and approach their nesting site on the bluff area there.
