I've never seen a green heron myself (not sure if they even exist in Germany), but I do love herons and this one seems to be not only particularly beautiful but also very clever indeed.<br />I remember you writing about the lake and the boardwalk before.

And I did hear the green heron on the videos that I watched, but the one that we saw was dead quiet, it was looking for fish on the water's edge! There is Upper Alexander Lake and Lower Alexander Lake. We say drain the lower one if you must, but keep the other one!<br />xxxKay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-42243161983389003982015-08-28T02:21:47.184-04:002015-08-28T02:21:47.184-04:00We get the green herons here.

I always love seeing them! And you are right, it would be a great shame to drain that beautiful lake!
