The Elusive Green Heron

The smaller Green Heron is more elusive than its towering cousins. With its dark colors and stocky bodies, the Green Heron blends in to its surroundings very well.
Can you see the Green Heron in my full frame photo below?

I’m sure most of you found it with your eagle eye. If you weren’t sure, the Green Heron is dead center. 🙂
Here’s the above photo cropped below, sharing that pretty little heron.

Usually you come up on them without knowing, and they flush out in flight. The above and below photos are the only two I could consider to share from the past month, they’ve been that elusive for me.

I think because it is such a challenge to find and photograph this heron is why I love it so much!
