There are times when you see yourself in a reflection and wonder who is that person? I don't remember being that old. Once you realize that each days passes like a shadow and leaves its tiny impressions on your face, you can look again and see into your past and likely into your future. Herons spend a lot of time standing around which is why they make good subjects for photographs.
For more than 30 years, we had a sailboat. We frequently spent weekends on it in a cove of an Ohio lake. Blue herons were our everyday companions. When I hear their "squak" I feel transported back to the age of the dinosaurs. They are one of my favorite creatures. Love it.
