Pterodactyls in Flight (Great Blue Herons)

Pterodaytls in Flight — Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias)

Great Blue Herons in flight resemble nothing so much as the reincarnation of ancient pterodactyls.  They are magnificent creatures that cruise through the sky with lumbering grace.  Their raucous squawks and “kronks” add depth and breadth to the simulation of prehistoric mystery. 

Turtle Journal offers the following montage of Great Blue Herons in flight for your pure enjoyment.  Each image can be enlarged by clicking.
