Nesting Perch II © Pamir Kiciman 2012 It was a very windy day. Great Blue Heron’s have so many feathers around their neck, front and head that give them unique features and extra “decorations.” Here it is grooming in the wind. Its partner was grooming a lot too that day. Here it is after it was satisfied, displaying all its glory, and here too.

Nest Perch © Pamir Kiciman 2012 This nesting Great Blue Heron was only a few feet away from the other one I posted recently. Regulars at the wetland told me they were probably a pair. Considering it’s nesting, that made sense. See the partner grooming here and here.
