River Chicken ...

"When I was a little boy every little squirt wanted to be a harpooner or a sword fisherman." - Quint, Jaws (1975)


While chasing steelhead on the Salmon River, this river chicken paid me a visit to show me how the locals get things done. For the first time in years, I had a video camera in my pocket when a video-worthy moment presented itself.

I too have seen them late into the year and always surprised that they can survive the winters. I guess lots of smolt and unfrozen rivers are good places to be for a heron.
