A great blue heron on Monday evening stands in an algal-covered pond next to the St. Marys Boat Club. Partly cloudy skies are expected today and mostly sunny conditions on Wednesday with high temperatures in the low 70s, according to local forecaster Dennis Howick.

Correction:

A heron was standing in a pond covered with duckweed next to the St. Marys Boat Club on Monday. The substance was misidentified in the photo description.

The error was made in reporting.
