Read MoreTrying To Eat A Leaf
The youngster turned around and spotted a leaf floating on the water. And promptly tried to eat it. Ended up spitting it out. I never did see it find anything to eat. There were several snowy egrets further out in the bay. Hopefully it will fly out and join them. The whole reason baby little blue herons are white like this for their first year is so they can blend in and mingle with snowy egrets. The snowies will show them where the good food spots are and how to catch prey. Plus safety in numbers.
