Great Blue Heron facts: not (technically) egrets, definitely not cranes | Animal Fact Files
Показать описание
Great blue herons are large birds, and are in fact the largest herons in North America! They may be mistakenly called cranes, but they aren't. Great blue herons live near slow moving or still water systems and gather in large groups during their breeding season in spring. Great blue herons are commonly seen perched in trees, flying overhead, or wading in water looking for a meal!
