this picture was taken in Sarasota Florida and then digitally change to have a painting effect... With a wingspan that can be up to six & a half feet across and a body length up to 54 inches long, the Great Blue Heron is the largest heron in North America.
Feeding on fish, aquatic invertebrates and the occasional small mammal, they are most often seen stalking prey in the shallows of freshwater rivers, lakes & marshes.
The Great White Heron is a color morph or variation of the Great Blue Heron that was once thought to be a completely different specie.
Similar in appearance to the White Egret, Great White Herons are most easily distinguished as having light colored legs whereas the Great Egret's legs are black.
