Heron today, goon tomorrow

Thanks to the Mower Lady, I feel safe saying I've seen green herons at Oak Point. The neck is just confusing. Sometimes it is short, and other times long. It's like that Fantastic Four guy in the Sixties cartoon show that stretched his arm sooooooo far. Or, maybe, like Inspector Go-Go-Gadget. Or... NBA amazing dunk shots. Library ladies shelving books on top shelves compare and contrast these superheroes. I would look better in Gadget's trench coat than Fantastic Four Spandex, for sure.



The cartoon show had a guy with an optional elastic arm feature, a girl who could be invisible, and an immature kid who responded to the shout, "Flame on, Johnny!" Being extremely mature myself, I fist pump and shout, "Flame on, Johnny!" whenever I light a grill or fireplace.
