Description
You can't see it in this image, but this Great Blue Heron is living life with one good leg. It's right leg appears to be completely dead, and this heron is using it as a "peg leg" as it has no foot either. From what I can tell, this bird is in good shape (I'm not an expert). I certainly hope that's true. I can't imagine how it affects its ability to walk in the water. I wonder if it has developed a different way to hunt; It was perched on a rock in this image.
