Howdee All,

April Fools..

But i do have this Lovely Green Heron.

I love this bird!

The Green Herons seems to blend so well with its surroundings.

Love the yellow around the eyes.

    Genius! Although, he has a look of disapproval. Perhaps you didn't get his best side?

    Great bird photo. I think you could hypnotize yourself if you stared at him long enough.

    AWESOME pic Dawn!!
    That look is a bit scary. Don't you love birds with strong 'personalities'?

    Ha! I thought you'd at least give us a Photoshopped Pileated Woodpecker or something...but that Green Heron is pretty cool. That's definitely the fiercest one I've ever seen!
