Same bird, different look June 5, 2022 · by Birder's Journey I love how this Tricolored Heron radically changes its appearance in seconds, with just a little pouf of the feathers. From the sleek look above to the fluffy look below. 🤗 Share this: Click to share on X (Opens in new window) X Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Like Loading...
I hope you do, too, Deborah! They are very active and it’s fun to watch them in action. LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
These birds are so used to see people that they just do not fear at all and just…pose! Great shots, Carol. 🙂 LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
Absolutely true, HJ. They’ll actually sit right on the boardwalk railing and let visitors admire them as they stroll by 😉 LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
I do that, too. Sleek one moment, fluffy the next. Only, the fluffy moments seem to last longer. Like, years. Great portrait of a handsome heron! LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
