The “Skinny Tree” so named because for its single trunk. I would never be surprised to get to the rookery and find out it had fallen over.
This season a Great Blue Heron pair is raising a family here.
These chicks are not yet four weeks old and the parents are already leaving them alone for hours. This leaves them vulnerable to attack by Great Egrets and birds of prey.
Wonderful shots of these sweet little guys. I sure hope they make it!
Thanks, Belinda. Me, too. There seem to be fewer mated pairs around here than last year and I’ve heard that about other rookeries as well. Hopefully there will be a high survival rate.
Amazing photos! Thanks for sharing them!
Thanks, Rebecca! I’m glad that you liked them.
Adorable little ones!
