      It was grayer than this but the bird didn’t stand out, so I changed the color of the background a bit. It picks up its color from the sky so goes from silver to green to blue. No. Not usually brown.

    Little Green Heron~? Beautiful photo Judy~! I have never seen a photo where the full color of the plumage is as vibrant as yours~! In fact this is the best I have seen…it should be published as many experts have not caught the sun right to show its true colors.

    Janet, this is a very pretty, smaller bird, than your great blue herons and though his neck looks shorter here, he has the ability to elongate it out a bit farther, though not as long as the blue.

    Our home in Houston backed up to Buffalo Bayou and a bird sanctuary. We were lucky to have this small heron nesting near us. Thanks for the memories, it has been a long time….

    Do they make it all the way down to you~?

    Thanks
