Fishhawk Lake Wildlife-Lone Heron on a Dock-Speechless Sunday

Lone Heron on a Dock-Gayle Rich-Boxman Copyrighted All Rights Reserved 2014I couldn't decide which one, so I included both. One is in black and white.

He looked so lonely.

I never see Great Blue Herons in pairs. Maybe that's why I think he looks lonely. Or pensive. 

My favorite bird. 

Ever since the dock was moved by the clubhouse to sit jutting out into the water, as opposed to parallel to the shoreline, more wildlife has enjoyed standing there, looking out across the water. 

Our home sits across the lake and I can step out and see these opportunities to photograph or simply take it in.

Lucky girl Gayle, a blue heron siting is always special - he looks like he is waiting for a fish to jump!

Great pictures as always Gayle, nice to see the wild neighbors are enjoying the dock.

Interesting that you would be showing a Great Blue Heron today, my son just sent me a batch of photos from my game camera that we have near the pond at our Cadott office and we found an interesting fellow in among the endless parade of deer.

Good morning Gayle. Living on water as we do, we see all kinds of birds, some stay for a few moments, other spend many years, even though it will freeze over. Love the shots.

Make it a great week!

Rob, back to the barn, huh?

Catherine Ulrey that's the kind of feeling I want to evoke, thank you for that response.

June Piper-Brandon I have MANY like this from our vantage point. He was doing a runway fashion show earlier this fall.

Sharon, I just got that strong feeling from him when I saw this.

Joanna, a positive way to look at him--thank you!

Bob Crane that is a beauty of a picture! I love the vantage point, and the bright blue. 

Joe Petrowsky totally agree. We just lost one of our "children", a Pilgrim Goose who'd been here for umpteen years. I miss her.
