The Great Blue Heron

 

Around my house on the beach, I see these amazing, giant birds walking around the swamps nearby.  These herons live in areas like swamps. Adult blue herons weigh about 50 lbs. They usually eat fish, since they live near them. Like many other birds, blue herons migrate. They also have nests. Many people ask, "are great blue herons actually blue?" They are, but a very unique, yet pretty shade of blue. Whenever I see these birds I get excited. I hope you can see one too, one day!
