Description
"One Wing Dip" by Debbie Oppermann. The Green Heron is a dark, stocky bird hunched on slender yellow legs usually at the water’s edge, often hidden behind a tangle of leaves, except in this image it is hanging upside down off a rusted wire fence, by the toes, over a roadside pond searching for fish and with one wing dipped in the duckweed filled pond. Seen up close, it is a striking bird with a velvet-green back, rich chestnut body, and a dark cap often raised into a short crest. These small herons crouch patiently to surprise fish with a snatch of their daggerlike bill.
