Adult Little Blue Heron on San Pablo Bay, California
Adult Little Blue Heron on San Pablo Bay, California.-On 25 September 1965 a Little Blue Heron, Florio!u caerzdea, in adult plumage was observed for about 30 minutes on the mudflats of San Pablo Bay, near the mouth of Tolay Creek, Sonoma County, California. The bird was observed by several members of the Redwood Region Ornithological Society aided by binoculars and a 20-power telescope. The Little Blue Heron was in company with several Snowy Egrets, Leucophoyx thula, and, when the tide rose, left the mudflats and flew north into a marshy area in company with a Snowy Egret.-JOHN R.
