What do you do in the nest all by yourself, hour after hour, waiting for the folks to bring a meal?
Pace back and forth.
Check out the corners of the nest.
Try out some new poses.
Test your vocal capacity.
Personal grooming.
I have not seen this chick leave the nest although I’m sure he could. He hatched about the same time as some others that have learned to use their wings.

He’s quite the performer. Excellent photographs!
Fun to watch, although even the young herons can stay in one spot for a long time. Thank you!
very cool, loved your captions too Ellen 🙂
Thanks, Tai!
love the pose and the vocalizing.. great photos.
Thanks. Vicki! The herons can really make some noise.
Love this post. Great pics and it made me laugh. Little ones are so much fun.
Thanks, Gina! They are comical sometimes, It’s a great opportunity to watch them grow up. This one should be flying soon.
Just love your photographs and the very apt captions! You’ve made my day 😀
Thank you, Jaya, and thanks for stopping by!
