Young Great Blue Herons Waiting For Mom and Dad: These guys look too gargantuan to be babies, but, they are between 4 and 5 weeks old., awaiting their regurgitated supper. After all, the only thing better than spiny sunfish and eels for dinner is regurgitated spiny sunfish and eels.

A busy afternoon at the Rookery.

changing the shape of the trees they loved best.’ -Johnny Flynn

We walked by the well-known heron rookery by the Ballard Locks last Sunday. Nesting activity is well underway. #Ballard #Seattle #PNW #naturephotography #nature #birds #birding #BallardLocks #SalmonBay #rookery #heron #GreatBlueHeron #nesting #GooglePixel #phone

At the St Augustine Alligator Farm and #Zoological #Park, many birds come to nest and raise their young in the trees over the swamp filled with alligators. This kind of #mutualism sees the birds and their nests protected from other predators that might come from the ground, and alligators get them instead.
Many #birds #nest use this as a #rookery, like this #Tricolored #Heron, standing over her two #eggs.

#SnowyEgrets (#EgrettaThula) can also be #poised and dramatic, like this #egret in #breedingplumage at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park. The #AlligatorFarm in #StAugustine #Florida is a natural #rookery for many species of water #fowl. The #alligators mostly lack interest in the #birds, and they prevent larger #animals from getting to their #nests and #eggs. This #symbiosis occurs in the wild as well.

Gotta get these shots in before the rooks start nesting again. edit - I've just noticed the lovely "Crown Shyness" at the top - the trees leave a gap between each other. Not fully understood! #Rookery #Wood #blackandwhite #photography #CrownShyness
