Subject: Hilton Pond 02-08-05 (Great Blue Heron)
Although Great Blue Herons are common across South Carolina,
we seldom see them except in winter at Hilton Pond, where they
sometimes perch in trees--and on Wood Duck boxes. This time of
year they look especially gray.
For a photo essay about this tall wader, please visit the
8-14 February 2005 installment of "This Week at Hilton Pond"
at <<http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek050208.html>>
As always, we include an account of birds banded during the
week, as well as a list of returns--one of which was yet another
ancient American Goldfinch.
Please forward this message to friends who appreciate birds and
nature, and tell them they can get a free reminder for "This Week
at Hilton Pond" by sending a blank E-mail to

Happy Midwinter Nature Watching!
