 | | Photo by Glynn Wilson | | The yellow-crowned night herons have returned to the tributary of Village Creek running through the Roebuck Golf Course, heralding in the spring bird migration in middle Alabamaland. They say it's a nocturnal species [nyctanassa violacea] of the Southern swamps and coasts, but there are two that fish all day long near tee-box number 12, paying little attention to golfers - or photographers. I was able to walk right up on this one Wednesday and get a really close shot. I call this one Smeagall for the way it sneaks up on the fish. |
