Road Description from airport / vejbeskrivelse til Louie
From airport take road TF 1 to Los Cristianons takeoff/salida nr 27 its not well adviced, but its 4 km after San Lorenzo nr 26. Go 1-2 km against Los Chritianos and in second roundabout, take to the right, signed Pourto Los Chr. after 1 km take left in roundabout and follow sign Puerto…, in downhill small roundabout take right to Playa de las Americas ( left is Puerto los Chr), passing alle the hotels to the end, take right in last roundabout , and then left to a big parking place by the beach, the Heron is often here in front of a small Macdonalds. If no P available here, go instead back to the downhill roundabout and to Puerto Los Christianos, by the harbour is a big parking, from here you can walk along the beach maybe 1-1,5km back to Playa America. From where the hotels ends - by restaurant Hooters & Macdonalds the rocky beach from here is the Herons favourite place except from high tide where its often goes 0,5-1 km south along the beach. On the picture Louie has just left from the normal place described above

her er et int . link om hejrer, Herons (also english text):

Når jeg så Louisiana hejren på de første foto inden rejsen, virker den kraftfuld og stor, "fiskehejreagtig", når man ser den i virkligheden er det en mini baby hejre, en ren slanketing når den står ved siden af en fyldig silkehejre.
på ovenstående link kan man se vægt/str. på forsk. hejrer, Louie vejer under halvdelen af min håndkikkert...

Skal vist nu hedde
Trefarvet Hejre-(Egretta tricolor)

Kært barn mange navne....
det er pudsigt , på netsider er begge navne anvendt, Louisianahejre dog siden 1800 tallet. I min felt pocketbog, A Guide to Field Identification, Birds of North America, som jeg købte i Texas for en del år siden (udg.1966, genoptrykt 1983) står i registret begge navne, men under siden med fuglen kun ; Louisinana Heron.
Og således (endnu) også på Netfugl....
