Here you can compare the sizes of a Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) in front of a Great Egret (Ardea alba). They only stayed this way fo a few moments before the egret ventured below the cord grass and the heron took off further up the cove.

Best viewed LARGE.

Launching a Great Blue Heron

First one I’ve seen in Mystic in two and a half years! Didn’t get any great pictures of him, but you can bet I’ll be on the lookout for another one. Looks like I will need to do some more early morning outings as this one was out round 7am.
