Description
A great blue heron (Ardea herodias) glides over a beach near San Francisco at sunset as it makes its way to another feeding area in the wildlife preserve.
This is the largest heron in North America, with a height of up to 54 inches (138 cm) and a wingspan of up to 79 inches (201 cm). Its habitat ranges from Alaska, Canada and the Pacific coast east to Florida and south to Mexico and South America.
I took this photo from a hilltop overlooking Richardson Bay, giving a unique perspective of viewing this majestic bird from a higher vantage point as it flew between the trees. The heron emerged from behind the foliage for a split second before disappearing again.
"Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?" Matthew 6:26, NKJV
