This morning a friend and I went to Shilshoal marina to walk and look
for/at birds. We walked to the south end by Seaview boats and looking
down on the docks saw a great blue heron very close. We then got
distracted seeing a bald eagle and when we looked back at the heron it
was lying down on the dock. Is this at all normal as neither of us has
ever seen a heron lying down - so wondered, worried it might be ill?
However, it looked ok - eye clear, no indication of damage to its body.
