Quiet For Once
This evening I was surprised to see this great blue heron take off and fly across the salt marsh without making a sound.
No major announcement of his arrival or departure, no loud in flight squawking, just simply a nice calm quiet flight.
Unusual for this typical loudmouth who generally seems to feel compelled to let the whole world know of his activities.

Maybe he’d had a busy day and just felt there was no-one about that he needed to impress.

They almost always have somebody (in their heads) they feel they need to impress. Don’t know about this guy. 🙂

That does seem odd :). He looks like a streamlined bullet whizzing past.

I took a few shots of this fly by. In one he was really tucked in and looked like a real missile. 🙂
