Young heron
Young heron, still with tufty feathers, hunting for fish. Even young herons are patient hunters, often standing motionless in the water for extended periods of time until their prey comes within striking distance. These birds are not strictly migratory. While some may travel to warmer areas during the winter, others stay in the same area year-round if food resources are abundant.
