Fun Little Tricolored Herons
I was looking back through my files at some photos of one of my favorite little birds, the tricolored heron, and I realized that I hadn’t posted any pictures of them lately.
These little guys are fun and interesting to watch as they carefully and patiently stalk minnows in the marsh. So…here are two different birds, on two different days, in two different settings.

Great looking bird but it sure seems to have big feet!
LikeLike
It is a nice looking bird and they are waders, so they need large enough feet to get around the marsh without stumbling over things. 🙂

When you call them little, what size are they?
LikeLike
Well not little like a cardinal or blue jay, but less then half the size of a great blue heron or great egret if that gives you an idea.
