As the sun rose yesterday morning, it turned the landscape into an amazing golden scene. This Great Blue Heron seemed to be enjoying it as it fished for breakfast at Lagerman Reservoir in Longmont, Colorado.
These birds have small bodies but are quite tall with massive wingspans that can reach over 6 feet wide. Oftentimes found along shorelines of lakes and calm areas of rivers, Great Blue Herons are very adept at plucking fish from the waters.
