Description
This weeks trip into the swamp (Wakodahatchee Wetlands) found most of the nests that I found last week were gone. Not only the birds and eggs but the nests were gone too. I did stumble onto this Wood Stock nest and her 3 chicks. You can tell by the look on Miss Wood Stocks face that I was too close. Wood stocks are about 40 inches (102 cm) tall and with a wing span of 61 inches (155 cm). She just stared at me until I backed off. If you zoom you can see 2 of her 3 chicks. My camera focus was on her face. She is cute. What do you think..
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Wow, Dana, what a great photo! She is indeed very cute, and also remarkably prehistoric looking! I wonder what happened to the nests.

Well, I wouldn't say wood storks are among the prettiest of birds, but they look like good parents, so that is a plus! Great shot, Dana!!!
