Looks like they are about ready to fly.
You gotta watch those sharp bills.

Well done, Lamar. I assume these were at Viera? If so, were they the same ones I saw when I was down there last December?

Thanks Ed! Yes at Viera. I haven't had much time lately to venture very far. The ones you saw fledged some time ago. There have been more GBH nests in Viera this year than ever before. At least 6 nests that have fledge since you were here. This particular nest is in a different cell just to the west. There are 3 active nest in that cell. Nesting is very active right now in Viera...Sandhill Cranes, Green Herons, Moorhens, Anhingas, Cattle Egret to name some. I've been monitoring the development in many of the nests since February. I've posted some on UHH. I'll be posting the Anhinga nest as soon as the three young fledge which will be very soon.
