Description


The Green Heron is a small heron common to North and Central America. There are actually 3 chicks in this nest but these newly hatched chicks had not developed any coordination yet. They will grow up to be 18 inches (46cm) long and with a wingspan of about 26 inches (66cm). This nest is only inches above the water, at the Wakodahatchee Wetlands Wildlife Refuge, so I did not have to climb any trees. They will have fluffy grey feather in 2 to 3 days. Zoom will help to see the details. Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated. Dana

Zoom is good with these birds tough it don't make them look any better - rather ugly really - hopefully they'll look better when they grow up a bit Great capture Dana

A great shot Dana and I bet some of these nests get washed away in the event of a flood! Btw, we had a super time at the party last night.

They look so funny on those long legs, looks as though they don't quite know what to do with them. xxx
