Is this a Migratory bird?

The lake and the view I must say you live in a nice place so much close to nature.; Thursday, September 22, 2011 3:48:00 PM

Brenda said...: Beautiful photos. I had to smile at the way it looked like the heron was watching you, trying to make up its mind about whether to be concerned or not... Finally it decided, "I'm out of here!" :); Friday, September 23, 2011 4:18:00 PM
