The Great Blue Heron flies with deep, slow wingbeats, its neck folded in an S-shape and its head pressed between its shoulders. Its long, slender digits are partially webbed. Plumage is mostly a blue-grey colour, and adults have a white crown with a black stripe extending from the yellow eyes to slender black plumes at the back of the head. Its breast is white streaked with black. The Great Blue Heron fannini subspecies is smaller and darker in colour than the Great Blue Heron herodias subspecies. It also differs in its reproductive behaviour and its reproductive physiology; in particular, it has a smaller clutch size.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't find any information about the description of both sexes and the younger life stages of the Great Blue Heron on the website sararegistry. However, I can provide you with some information about these topics, if that would be helpful.
The Great Blue Heron is a large wading bird that can be found in wetland habitats across North America. Here are some details about the different aspects you mentioned:
1. Description of both sexes: Both male and female Great Blue Herons have similar appearances. They have a blue-grey plumage overall, with a white crown on their head. They have long, S-shaped necks and yellow eyes. Additionally, adults have a black stripe extending from their eyes to slender black plumes at the back of their heads. Their breast is white streaked with black.
2. Younger life stages: Great Blue Herons go through several stages of development before reaching adulthood. After hatching from an egg, they start as hatchlings covered in white and gray down feathers. As they grow, their feathers gradually change to the typical blue-grey plumage of adults. Young herons stay close to their nests and rely on their parents for food and protection. As they become more independent, they start venturing out and learning to hunt for themselves.
While sararegistry may not have the specific information you are looking for, you can try searching for more details on reputable wildlife or birding websites, scientific journals, or books about birds. Additionally, you can visit local nature centers, bird sanctuaries, or contact bird experts or ornithologists who may have more in-depth knowledge about the Great Blue Heron and its life stages.
