I call it the Anderson Creek Marsh, because the west branch of the creek flows through it. On maps, though, the wetland is unnamed. It’s an amazing habitat for a wide variety of birds, including an elusive Great Blue Heron I’ve been trying to photograph over the last month. As I would inch forward using my car as a blind, the heron would fly off and I’d only get a distant shot as it took to the air. Finally, on Monday night, I got some close-ups of this beautiful bird as it meandered through the tussock sedge. In the end, it flew to another part of the marsh, but I’m glad I kept trying.
