On one foggy, early morning, when I got to the river, there was a large tree trunk slowly drifting down river on the tide with a great blue heron sitting on it looking for prey. When you think about it, that is pretty amazing behavior. The log represented an opportunity to hunt in a normally inaccessible part of the river and the heron recognized this fact. Seems to me, it demonstrates greater problem solving reasoning than a bird would normally be given credit for performing.
