alien predator!
Looking perhaps like an alien from outer space and sporting a feather-do only a mother could love, a young Great Blue Heron chick squawks from inside its nest. Many Delmarva Great Blue Herons have already fledged, this nest of three is somewhat behind. When this chick is grown those intense eyes and that throat are the last thing many fish will see.

I think I’d like to sign up for the Looney Birds series — these are great shots!
