Great Egret - Mom & Newborn in Nest
In the midst of nesting season, here is a hatchling and mom in their nest.
Very cute fluff balls, they soon turn into boisterous 'teens' with buzz-cut haircuts looking like a cross between Bart Simpson and Don King.
Here is a video of some juveniles doing what I called 'The Dance of the Great Egret"
More still photos of birds @ http://www.fenichel.com/birds - and more videos on YouTube.

"Chuckles and Yak-Yak"
Two loquacious juvenile Great Egrets.
Since I was a child, people have said, "your photos are postcards", as I compose through the viewer and "what you see is what you get", very rarely cropping. Sometimes I do experiment and wonder if a crop would be more dramatic. Case in point here. A long shot (original) provides the "context and perspective" I usually enjoy, but I tried a crop here to focus more on their expression, such as can be seen in the shadows and distance. Not sure which I prefer now...

Hey you! Get off my cloud!
That is approximately the conversation here, at the top of the rookery's tree-tops, with a few nice "penthouse" nests.
(Location location!)
A few families are in residence, some have built big nests and more are arriving, some vying for a good spot in the hierarchy - and tree.
A few "winter babies" play and are still in the nest, learning to fly. As some adults are romancing (already in spring plumage) and others are fighting over prime real estate and dominance. Hey! You!
Sound track (Rolling Stones) : "Get off of my Cloud!"

"A lovely stick for the nest, my dear...."
This Great Egret couple is already paired off and getting ready for an expanded family, with a great location near the top of the tree, great view, and an ample supply of sticks for building and upkeep.

I was just being silly when I searched for "nesting sheep." But you really can find just about anything on the internet.
