Green Heron – Anhinga Trail; Everglades National Park, Florida: Anhinga Trail is one of the most reliable places on the planet to find birds to photograph. During the dry season from January to April, a plethora of birds to watch and photograph can be found on the .8 tenths mile trail.
I do not remember a time that I have been to Anhinga Trail and not seen green herons perched on a rock or low hanging branch snatching minnows from the slough. This Green Heron was photographed in the late evening light as the sun was setting. While the orange light of the setting sun barely illuminated the heron, it revealed detailed, intricate patterns in the heron’s feathers that are often overlooked by the casual observer.
