Today’s episode on bird behavior features the Little Blue Heron, now officially named “Blue Heron.” You’ll notice its blue beak and smaller size in comparison to the Great Blue Heron. As you follow along this series of four photographs, you will see the heron wade into shallow water and look for food with a head tilt.

Next, the blue heron suddenly dunks its head under water to pierce or grab its prey.


Finished feeding here, the little blue heron takes flight for a new location.
