Great Blue HeronSome birds are loners. Some birds play well with others. Some birds just like hanging in a group of like-minded.
Birds are SOOOOO like people. Don't you think?
These photos were all take along the Swinomish Channel near La Conner, WA.

Did you know that Bowerman Basin has a shorebird display in the hundreds of thousands (or maybe 100,00 - that's plenty) and I think the migration when it occurs is in April. It is a phenomenon.
Though I know they enjoy communing, that seems to be a lot of herons hunkering together. I can't help but think what lucky birds they are to be in such a pristine environment.
Wow! In all our travels, I have never seen that many herons in one place! Very cool.
Casey -- sounds like my kind of place! Some day I'll be on the North Platte River in Nebraska for the Sand Hill Crane migration.
Sam -- I was surprised by the herons! Didn't see any nests, though. Maybe it was just a socialization event!
Angie -- it was a sight to see, that's for sure. That channel is a long stretch at a slow speed but the birds made it a joy instead of a drudge.
