A Heron in Gurnee

So me and the wife went for a walk last Friday down that trail that follows the Des Plaines River. We got on near Grand Ave and walked north for a while. We game across a small pond, relaxed for a bit and decided to turn back when a Heron flew overhead and landed in the pond if front of us. My wife, who is the photographer, took a few shots. Oh, and I finally scared it to get it to fly away.
