A Great Blue Heron returning to the nest. It was the end of the day.

The sun goes down behind the trees off to our right in most places this time of year.

When the sun finally shifts mid spring light will be better.
However, that’s about the time the trees leaf out hiding many of the nests.

No matter what, this is really quite a show.
Beautiful scene!
Thanks. A busy time in the swamps. Iβm hoping the Great Egrets show up next.
After all those big sticks, that one is really, really tiny! π
Some of them must be new at this. ππ
