Juvenile Blue Heron

[larryj]

I think this juvenile blue heron fell out of his nest and hasn't yet learned to use his wings. He looks totally wild eyed and crazy. He does not know there is a lifetime of food under his feet!

Looks like his wings are developed enough to fly once he figures it out. Nice expression in this capture.

Thanks for the comments Alan, very much appreciated!
This chick was from a nest with 5 chicks and was very crowded. He may have been pushed out during a feeding frenzy when an adult arrive with food! I may post an image from that nest in the future, it had a very cluttered background and not too photogenic!
