Happened upon the return to natural habitat for this juvenile Great Blue Heron (G.B.H.) this morning at Des Moines Beach Park.  They’d been injured near a Des Moines area rookery prior to fledging and spent the past several months at wildlife rehabilitation in Lynnwood.  They emerged from their transport crate after only a minute or so and took to their home without difficulty.  Look forward to seeing this youngster around.
