This Fall has been warmer than usual, and today was no exception. It must have been near 70 when I headed out for the short trip to Truxtun Park. Rain was forecast, so I thought I’d get in a few birding moments before doing some chores. I saw a fox on the bridge, and three hawks in various places, but it wasn’t possible to get pictures. I did find a cooperative Great Blue Heron, so here’s a few shots.

This Great Blue Heron was quite close to the bridge when I arrived, but I spooked her, and she flew some distance away. Eventually, she worked her way back closer to my position.
