One of the several Great Grey Herons who call Bluffton home enjoys spending time in the small pool in front of The Centre. The Icon noticed the bird recently. The Icon slowly cruised the parking lot, shooting photos, and the ever-so-sly Heron disappeared into the scenery. Compare the photo above with the photo below. Watching the Icon the entire time, the bird barely moved, but moved enough to hide itself.
