Text Appearing Before Image:
GREAT BLUE HERON (Ardea herodias) The great blue heron is a large, long-necked, long-legged wading bird with a spear-like bill which it uses to capture fish, frogs, snakes and other prey. This species, which is often incorrectly referred to as a crane, is solitary in its habits except during the breeding season. During the breed- ing season herons form colonies, building bulky nests and raising scrawny- looking, downy young. When perching or standing in a river or stream this large, blue-gray heron has a somewhat hunched appearance. In flight the neck is folded and the legs are held stiffly behind the body. Great blue herons are fairly common breeding residents in both Yellowstone and Grand Teton.
