• This video show a Great Blue Heron in the middle of winter in Juneau.
  • These birds typically feed in freshwater at this time on stickleback.
  • Not many freshwater areas are ice free enough for the heron to find fish.
  • This particular site I believe is spring fed which helps keep it open and may be critical for the herons survival.
  • It has been at this same spot for over a month.
  • Of interest is the photo showing the skunk cabbage plants growth on March 3.
