The Little Blue Heron
The Little Blue Heron This is a picture I took in the beautiful Caribbean island of Grenada in March 2004. Madeleine and I went there to celebrate a special wedding anniversary. From our balcony we had a view of a small lake with the beach and the sea just beyond it. Every morning the Little Blue Heron would rise from the far side of the lake and glide over the water looking out for an early breakfast. He and his family like a fresh water habitat near the sea. This helps them vary their diet and adds a little sport to their hunting. They can as often be seen dodging the surf for pickings from the fishing boats as skimming the tranquil lake to pick up a leisurely lunch. This fellow became my inspiration for the Craftsite logo because of his obvious enjoyment of a completely graceful and thoroughly contented lifestyle. Now isn't that something worth aiming for?
