More of the baby Green Heron. He’s losing a lot of the fuzz from his head now. The first time I saw him he wasn’t catching much, but I’ve seen him catch a couple dragon flies and a few tiny fish since then so his hunting skills are improving.
The little guy is not very ‘street smart’ yet which is why I’ve managed to get quite a few shots of him. I’ll share a few of the adult Heron too – looks the same but no fuzz and less striping on the chest.
