During last months visit to the Ice Pond, we had a variety of birds to photograph, as you have seen already. Here is an interesting shot where the cormorant took off from its perch on the mid-pond rock (see earlier post). The bird cruised past the blue heron standing on the dock and a great egret standing on a branch above.

A great blue heron stands on this dock on the east side of the ice pond for hours. Late one afternoon while I waited for him to do something, anything!, he turned to his left and took a bow. He then slowly walked off stage.

Along the coast near the Mystic river.
