Great Blue Heron Skewers Sculpin - a photo on Flickriver

            A Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias), with its sleek gray plumage, is captured in a moment of triumph, clutching a tidepool sculpin in its beak. This majestic bird is equipped with specialized eyes that allow it to compensate for the refraction of light in water, enhancing its ability to accurately sight and capture aquatic prey. The heron stands in the shallows, a skilled hunter perfectly adapted to its coastal environment.
