Made a quick stop at the Veteran's Park Lagoon in Milwaukee this morning. The
fog was thick along Lake Michigan so views were tough.
Red-winged blackbirds were actively defending their nest areas. Meanwhile,
there was one Black-crowned Night Heron on the east side of the lagoon near the
south end. It was a rare treat to see one perched out on the open and extended
upward. It was unfortunate that the fog present. I managed to get one decent
photo and a couple with the fog, including two in-flight.
Photos were nothing spectacular, but documented the bird's presence. I haven't
seen other BCN Herons at the lagoon for some time.
