About this work

Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — A green heron is spotted on a fence in the Launch Complex 39 Area at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. These herons range across the eastern half of the United States, wintering through South Carolina, the Gulf Coast and California. For their habitat, the herons prefer lake margins, streams, ponds and marshes. KSC shares a boundary with the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, which surrounds it.
