The Little Green Heron Preening

I was sitting on a bench dejected that I couldn't get a good picture of the cedar waxwings at Eastern College Pond when I heard this low growling sound.  I could't find it at first, but finally looked up under the leaves and there was this beautiful green heron pruning and calling for a girlfriend to come join him.  (I think he is a he.)  I took way too many photographs, but this was my favorite.  If you click you get a better view.  Reminded me of a Japanese etching.
