Great Blue Heron – The ConductorThe Conductor
Looking almost like an orchestra conductor at the conclusion of a musical score, a Great Blue Heron uses its outstretched wings to stall its forward motion while alighting. This elegant wading bird is a familiar component of wetland habitats and is frequently observed stately striding freshwater marshes, coastal backwaters and salty seasides in search of a meal.
