My Heart Stood Still

Today as I walked Rascal near the creek (his favorite place to sniff around) I spotted this bird which I believe to be a Great Blue Heron. This was the best shot I could get and I'm sorry it's not a little clearer. I'm counting on my bird friends to let me know if that's what it is or if it


's a different kind of bird. Maybe it's a sandhill crane. I just couldn't get closer.




Then...................

..................he was gone!!!

I'll be back in a few days. I have to go to Billings Montana with my husband while he has a heart cath. Hope they find (or don't find) what they're looking for. God bless you, Diane

It looks like a blue heron but then again I have only seen a sandhill crane once. They are great photos though.
Hope all goes well for you and your husband.Take care and have a safe trip.
