Which one of these is not like the others?
Yes, it’s the Black-crowned Night Heron, mingling with a group of ducks at the edge of the Chestnut Hill Reservoir.
The Heron was easy to miss (and hard to photograph) because the vegetation was thick along the banks of the Reservoir. No doubt that vegetation also made our friend feel at home. After DCR came through with the Habitat Destroyer (a.k.a., the slope mower), no more Night Heron.
