This Great Blue Heron came charging in to this roost tree and took a spot right in the middle of all the others.

The tree was already full with a Tricolored Heron, Roseate Spoonbill, and female Anhinga.


The Anhinga, as usual, complained and yelled at the bigger Heron. The others watched close, but just did their best to ignore the new comer.

A little after these shots it was the Great Blue that took off. Too many strange looking birds for his taste.
