They are massive birds, and you get a real sense of their size when they fly by with their 9 foot wingspan. And then there is something prehistoric in their shape and motion. On the water, they look almost like swans. In the air, they look like pterodactyls!
I love pterodactyls so this one really catches my eye every time!! Chandra :)
ReplyDeleteChandra, I didn't know that about you! I suppose you must like the great blue herons too, as they also have that ancient something about their posture in flight. Something about the bent neck!
