Sunday at the Ditch with Harry

OK, it wasn't really Sunday. But I couldn't resist riffing on "Sunday in the Park with George"!

Time to visit my favorite heron, Harry!

I haven't seen him for a bit -- since we last visited the ditch, the leaves have come out and things are looking green and lush.

They should. We've had a ton of rain!

Harry is so muted that he blends into the reeds behind him.

But he was there, fishing...

... and preening...

...and just enjoying the May evening.

And so was I!

Spring really might be landing! It's about time!

Great photos! Esp that one of you at the end! We had a beautiful week of weather last week. I drive by a lake on my way to work and it was just beautiful - it was like glass! I am so ready to move, but I will sort of miss driving by that lake on mornings like the ones we had last week. But soon enough I will be going ot my parents cabin on the weekends and hopefully we'll have lots of glass-like lake mornings. Those are my favorite!

It looks like Harry enjoyed the photo session as much as you did, even "posing" in a couple of the pictures.

His silver-gray feathers are so beautiful, and he is very graceful. As are you. I love your green pashmina (?)! My red-haired sister's granddaughter was married a couple of Saturdays ago, and my sister wore a shantung silk suit that same green. When I laid eyes on her I went into a state of color ecstasy! :-)

Harry is gorgeous - and I love the way he fits so perfectly in his habitat. That's nature at work, isn't it?

And you look stunning in that color green!

I always enjoy seeing your Harry the Heron pictures! We need some more rain here, although not accompanied by any stormy weather! You look so pretty, always so photogenic!
