little blue heron has a bad day
This juvie little blue heron I have seen around our ponds for the past week or so. Poor little guy just wants to hang out and these black-necked stilts won't have him anywhere near their chicks. Not sure if the juvie little blue means any harm but they don't care one way or another. The little guy is still molting his plumage and will be solid blue/gray with a brownish redish neck. Bluish bill. He won't have any white when done molting.
