This was a first for me! Never have seen one of these before, and didn't know they even existed! Saw his blue beak in the tall grasses and stayed with him for a while until he moved into the water and I could get a better shot of him. Came home and looked him up on my Audubon app and found him pretty quickly. What a cool surprise! Francoise, this was taken at Chincoteague!
Beautiful shot! his is a new type of blue heron for me with the dark neck and blue beak - stunning :) I prefer this natural shot of a beautiful bird. Fav
