At the pond rookery

Nesting is in full season now. Storks and Egrets are sitting on eggs, a few chicks are hatched. These are taken with D500 and Sigma 150-600/ monopod. So far there are no Comorants, no night Herons or green Herons, or Anhingas. I hope they are just late!

Very nice, Cloudhopper! Are you going to check out Port Richie this season?

Not sure if it's worth the drive as this pond is right by my house.

Storks and Great Egrets are everywhere ! GBH, Tricolor, Green Heron, Snowy Egrets, Night Herons, Spoonbills have become more elusive ....

Indeed I noticed that many of the species are missing compared to previous years.

Wonderful results with all those branches in the way, Gary!
They're on an island in the middle of the pond, so one cannot walk up to them.
