April 19 at Green Lake

Good Friday, April 19 at Green Lake ...
As it looked at the start of today's walk around
Green Lake, Seattle, WA

Linking up today with Skywatch Friday

As usual, the Blue Heron is looking for breakfast.

Attack!
I believe it is a Red-winged Blackbird annoying the Heron.
The Blackbird swept down to the Heron several times.
I stopped for a couple minutes to see if I could capture this.
Way too much movement but you get the idea.

Rain at times during today's walk but mostly dry.
Comfortable too.

The forecast calls for a sunny weekend.
Looking forward to seeing this scene in sunshine.

    So green! I wonder why that blackbird had it in for the heron; we'll never know but your photo, although blurry, was a nice capture. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

    Happy Easter John. It is 'Easter Saturday' here- looking forward to Sunday tomorrow...I remember well going to our Presbyterian Church here in Campbelltown with my Mum a lot of decades ago for Easter Special Service. Easter reminds me of Mum- it is a special time of year. Regards. KEV.

    I wonder if the heron was too close to the blackbird's nest. I am surprised that they don't get along better. :-)
