great blue heron (Ardea herodias)

Legg Par, Meridian Township, Michigan

 

This sighting was a real surprise. While walking through a wooded area of the park along the Red Cedar River, I noticed this heron wading in the river through the trees, about 50-60 feet in the distance. It's the first heron I've seen in this area. Quite a day.
