Don's (not so) Weekly Photo

I do not always have a post to write, but I want to share my photos - so I started this weekly photo page.

​Just one photo each week. The photo may be new or it may come from my pile of favorites. A different photo will be posted every week. Drop by and check it out.

Weekly has become a bit more erratic, hence the new – more accurate  name.

This Great Egret still has most of her mating aigrettes (long plumes) while the green at the base of her bill has already faded away. You can see two chicks here but I think there were actually four chicks in the nest. In this photo mom is tending to the chicks after feeding is finished. Great Egrets will lay anywhere from one to six eggs, and the chicks will fledge and leave the nest in about 24 days.

As usual, your photos are fabulous. That is the only way I'll ever get to see a mama egret feed her babes. Thanks.
