Braving ice, mud and this relentless head cold, I made it back across the creek. I was finally able to get a very long distance shot of this pair of herons. They had been down in Cache Creek, and flew off as I approached. They had probably been alerted by the large flock of wood ducks that took off when I wasn't even near the creek! I will never get those wood ducks without the kayak.
The herons were gone by the time I got to their tree, but as I trudged across the field, I happened to glance up at the vulture oak, and there they were! Maybe they are getting a bit used to me, as they did stay long enough for a shot or two but when I started waking in their direction, off they went! Hope they will establish a nest on the property...that would be very neat.
There was ice on the little pond this morning...a very cold day here, but at least the sun is shining.

I love the photo, all those delicate dark lines against the bright blue sky. It would be fun to make a drawing based on it.
