I watched this Great Blue Heron for over an hour. He caught three fish and twice he spread his wings to just stand there and sun himself. Here he is taking care of an itch. It is amazing how much bird is on the skinny legs. This Great Blue seems to not be afraid of people walking slowly on the boardwalk.
