Center right of frame, facing forward, looking right standing on bed of decaying reeds. From Ohiodnr.gov., Green herons are primarily a species of streams, and when flushed, emit a loud, distinctive skow sound. Green herons often call at night when flying overhead, too. An interesting behavioral facet is their use of tools; green herons sometimes drop feathers on the water to lure fish. Besides fish, green herons also feed on frogs and invertebrates.
Happy Friday friends... the best birding experience usually happens when your first bird at a park is someone unexpected. This Green Heron fits the bill. #birds #ohbirding #wildlife #naturephotography #Herons #SpringMigration
