Immature Black-crowned Night Heron During Sunrise

I don't remember how it all started, but I remember very well the day I discovered a spacious backwater on the Bear River, which is the flight path of many birds.

When I am on the Bear River MBR, I drive to this backwater, and like a Great Blue Heron patiently wait  for the fish to come to me  when in the sky a bird may appear, any bird. 

Sometimes I see a squadron of pelicans heading my way or seagulls soaring overhead, but on some days a lone immature Black-night heron flies past.

In the Wasatch Mountains. Death and Life

The old ceased to exist and the new was born, and the new gave way to yet another new.
