These big birds will soon start to migrate southward to northern South America. They normally will travel during the daytime and travel from Banff as a single or in small flocks.

It is rare, though not unheard of, for an occasional Great Blue Heron to successfully survive a winter in the north if it can find open water.

They will be back next spring, the Great Blue Heron can live up to 18 years old in the wild.

Hello and Welcome!
My name is Jack, I live in Alberta, Canada and I post photo’s that I have taken along the way. I have added-on a "Bible Quote" to pique the interest of each post. As an ametuer photographer I am fortunate to live in a place and in the middle of two beautiful provinces of Canada, where photo op’s are abundant and the scenery of God's Nature makes you awestruck. A place for which, it is a sin to ever leave home without a camera!
I have named my web site with a "WINDOW " because you get what I see and you are really viewing the wonders of God's beautiful nature! Discover it!
I welcome feedback and questions! Enjoy!
Jack
