Heron's flight

In the stories they commonly represent patience, focus, grace and wisdom. It takes quite a while to see one of them flying as they tend to wade in the water barely acknowledging their surroundings. The elegant long gliding on wind, if you wait long enough for it to happen, is an incredible sight.
