Green Heron At Chaffee Crossing

Green Heron

Their habitat is small wetlands in low-lying areas. Green Herons are most conspicuous during dusk and dawn, and if anything these birds are nocturnal rather than diurnal, preferring to retreat to sheltered areas in daytime. They will feed actively during the day however if hungry or provisioning young.

They mainly eat small fish, frogs and aquatic arthropods, but may take any invertebrate or vertebrate prey they can catch, including such animals like leeches and mice.

My name is Steve Creek and I am a photographer from Lavaca, Arkansas. I am always outdoors walking around with a camera so I decided to get serious about taking nature photos while on my adventures. My favorite area to view wildlife is at Fort Chaffee, Arkansas. I also like walking around Wells Lake and the Arkansas River Valley Nature Center. Thank you for visiting my photoblog.
