Great Blue

Yesterday we walked to Cass Park and let Lily poke around the baseball field. Her paws were still too tender for her to run like crazy. We only stayed for a few minutes but as we were walking out of the park we spotted a great blue heron on the far side of the pond, standing on the thin ice. His wings were blue-gray and he looked like stone. He almost disappeared into the landscape. As we got closer he lifted himself up in graceful slow motions like a pterodactyl dinosaur.
