Observation details
Clearly a Little Blue Heron, please view the images. Lucky encounter at work today. This Little Blue Heron has been in the area since the end of February. Today I was fortunate to see it during my break at work and grab my camera for some detailed images. Strange place for this bird to be there is no suitable food for this bird at this facility. It seems it was just exploring looking down into a "settling pool". I saw this bird here once before during a significant rain storm which I believe forced it out of the neighboring creek and slough. No explanation for its presence today. I looked for it again in the afternoon without any success.
