Old enough to fly now. Flight school is over. This year there was no real series of flight school for me to capture. The change in the rookery location meant I could not see any of the nests.

This bird will be white for another year. The end of next summer should see his colors turning deep blue.

With luck some birds will nest in the old small rookery next year. It would be a shame to see that swamp abandoned. This winter should see some changes to the water flows around here so that might help.
