Hey Tweets...Sherry Hagen said, "This afternoon while coming from the
Vancouver Mall, a GREEN HERON flew in front of the car, through all the
traffic and landed in the little pond ...".

I was out at Damon Pt. today and while returning crossed the outtake near
the marina. Looking to my left at the canal, there was a GREEN HERON
balanced on the fence surrounding that outlet. It looked so strange perched
there on the fence, rather than standing among the reeds or on the dock
nearby.

Also, while out in the same area on Wednesday, I watched an adult BALD EAGLE
stoop on a duck on the game range. It was so ponderous-looking against the
more agile duck, yet the eagle made 4 passes and then tried to flush the
duck which had gone into the brush for cover. This is probably one of the
pair that has a nest over on the bay side.
