Surveying the domain

I think Great Blue Herons are magnificent, and it was such a treat to photograph this one in a less urban environment than I'm used to doing. This obviously is a favorite perch of the heron, as my husband found him/her there again on our second visit to Brazos Bend.

 

A photographer was there before us, and told my husband it was a Great Egret. Huh. Someone needs a birding book!
