Well, it’s like they say. If you’re going to be a heron, you should be a really great heron! A heron like this great blue heron (Ardea herodias). This one is at home just off the beach, and standing in a light rain, near the Edmonds Ferry Terminal. When I asked Ardea what he was doing, he simply waved his large wing and croaked something about looking it up online. Fair enough. (Hey! If a GBH sees it’s shadow, does that mean there will be 6 more weeks of Summer> Eh?) Photo: Taken from Olympic Beach in Edmonds on 17 July 2011.
