After working for the Connecticut Audubon Society, it's hard not to get excited when you see a new bird. I've always loved the coloring and stature of the Green Heron, but had never seen one in person... until yesterday! Cassidy and I took quite a few trips to the park yesterday, hoping to capture this fellow while he was out and about.
