From the Gone Fishing Archives: Dead herons tell no tales
Living along the Mississippi River, and poking around as much as possible, I've come across many dead animals. Lots of fish, of course, but also beavers, dogs, fox, deer, Canada geese, raccoons, ducks, possums, one person.
This recently departed Great Blue Heron was floating in the center of the river, just below the Burlington Northern railroad bridge on May 25.
When a wave passed over it, the corpse undulated and looked alive.
