A Great Blue Heron with beautifully outstretched wings gracefully flies over the serene waters of Ecola Creek in Cannon Beach, Oregon, surrounded by lush greenery on shore.
The scene captures a moment of nature's beauty in a tranquil setting.

I was surprised to spot this beautiful Green Heron (Butorides virescens) on one of my outings to Lake Ballinger this winter, gliding gracefully over the tranquil lake, displaying the beautiful colors of their vibrant wings. I usually see them here between Spring and Fall. Evidently some of them are wintering in Wester Washington to my delight.

Two great blue herons face each other on wooden posts, their wings spread and beaks touching, creating a heart shape.
In this courtship ritual the male offers a twig, the female accepts it and will use it for nest building.
The background is blurred and natural.

I had a chance to witness the Great Blue Herons elaborate courtship rituals at the Everett Marina in Washington state recently.
Although they don't mate for life, they form a close bond for a breeding season.
The male picks the nest site and attracts a female, e.g. with offering twigs, if she accepts them its a sure sign of success and they go on displaying other types of courtship rituals.
In this capture the male just returns to the chosen nest site and offers a twig, the partner will be arranging the nest after accepting it.
Fascinating to observe their coded behavior.
