Hey, that's Tweeters. We ebb and flow, we to and fro. Topics come and
go, and this one would have ebbed without the testy comments.

This morning I was treated to a wonderful sight of 3 Great Blue Herons
flying in single file (chasing each other?) across I-90, with a shaft of
sunlight spearing through the clouds, to dance across the surface of Lake
Washington. I enjoy watching the lazy, long wingbeats of GBHs - it seems
almost impossible that this bird could fly! And to see three of them,
steadily crossing from one side to the other - why, it almost made me
enjoy my commute. :)

I have always considered GBHs to be solitary unless nesting. Is this
true?
