Saw a Great Blue Heron at Caspersen Beach this morning




I assume it was a Great Blue Heron. I wanted to get a really up close photo or video of it. But darned smartphones are always so wide screen. I got as close as I possibly dared. Then sat on a rock. He (or she) mostly sat there. Then he pointed at the water with his beak. I started filming. Then we walked in front of me, over to a nearby fisherman. I thought he was going to steal some fish from the fisherman's bait buckets. But it seems he was just going to wait behind the fisherman, hoping he'd share some of a catch. I was wondering if the bird was going to bet so close to the fisherman that the fisherman would turn around and jump at how close the bird was. But he didn't.
