Great Blue Heron

I was at the Marina and we saw this Heron hanging out. It was the first time this year we saw it. Normally we see the swans. It was just hanging out on a downed tree in a small bay on Lake St. Clair.

These are a few pictures from the pond in my backyard. The pretty yellow and black bird in the foggy photo is a male goldfinch. He is resting on some purple coneflower that he enjoys snacking on.
