With the marsh flooded at Chesapeake Farms, I just had to look other places to find birds.
A-ha! I spotted a Great Blue Heron resting up in a tree along the road. I almost missed it as I passed by, s/he blended in so well. Ever so slowly I was able to back up for a couple shots.

Despite their impressive size, a Great Blue Heron weighs only 5 to 6 pounds, thanks in part to their hollow bones. This is a feature all birds share.
