Beautiful pictures. Better than anything i've ever shot. Just curious, what camera and lens you used. Understand, I do credit your skill set with the success of these pics!
Great pictures but does this bird have another name? Your photo of the adult bird is what I would have identified as a reddish egret. Just wondering
These are definitely Little Blue Herons. The Little Blue is smaller and more compact with a shorter bill and legs and different bill color than the Reddish Egret. See the pictures of Reddish Egrets that I posted on the Hog on December 6, 2016. The Reddish Egret also has shaggy neck feathers.
