Black-crowned Night Heron

Always a treat to spot a Black-crowned Night Heron at the park.

Black-crowned Night Heron

Yesterday morning while on a walk around the park I noticed the beautiful silhouette of a Great Blue Heron perched in a Willow Tree by a pond at Bassett Creek Park.

Just the day before I was thrilled to spot a Black-crowned Night Heron on a branch above Bassett Creek.  With a late spring the leaves aren't yet out on the trees, making for great bird watching.
