On Top of the World!

This Great Blue Heron had an enviable perch in a tree broken by the ice storm in Delta Ponds. He was able to look down on the rest of the ponds. Made me think of the song, "On The Top Of The World", by the Carpenters. Listen to it here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1u6628Rdqs (skip the ad).
