Aerial crawfish feast
Even a Blue Heron is entitled to a tasty crawfish every once in a while. Just carry it to the top of a high branch with plenty of clear sight distance so that no one can try to sneak up on it and steal the treat.
When we were kids we had a bathtub full of crays(as we called them) in the chook yard and used them for bait!! Gosh now they are top price in restaurants. We never considered eating them!!!
Hello! I found your beautiful photos while researching the web for a book I'm writing. Is there any chance you might have time to assist me with some of that research? I'm looking for information on the French Quarter; Decatur Street businesses in the 1960's, a place called; Mr Lucky's on Royal Street in the mid-1960's, photos or info...marthaliou@sbcglobal.net

Man Steve, that's a neat shot of the diner and the dinner.

ReplyDeleteGolly gee that is a nice portrait of the blue heron.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a great shot.
ReplyDeleteAt least he doesn't have to do all the work to get the meat out. He can just eat it whole. :)
I still want to snap a heron, especially the blue. Perfect capture
