Description
The Grey Herons (Ardea cinerea) - also known as Common Herons or "Cranes" in Ireland - are wading birds with an extensive geographic range which extends throughout temperate Europe and Asia, and parts of Africa. In Europe, they are the largest herons.
They are related and resemble the North American Great Blue Herons and the South American Cocoi Herons or White-necked Herons - both of which are slightly larger in size. Since their ranges don't overlap - with the exception of some occasional vagrants - confusion is unlikely for the most part.
I found this beauty on a morning walk around a private pond in Fort Worth, Texas. There were Canadian geese and their young on the far side of the pond too. All rights apply. FAA watermark will not appear on any product purchased.
