These are probably some of the last photographs of the Yellow-crowns in this rookery for the year. I was surprised to even get these.
The chicks have hatched, grown, and fledged all deep inside the thick trees and brush in the swamp. I didn’t get a single shot of a chick in here. The only thing that grows faster than the chicks is the dense swamp foliage.
Love it! 🤗😍💚🍃🙌🏼
😊😊😊
It looks goofy. 🤭
🤣🤣, can’t disagree lol
What, you can’t get in a harness and get a squadron of mosquitoes to fly you into the bush?
You get the big combo in these places. Mosquitoes, biting Gnats, Horse Flys. Not pretty, maybe fatal lol. 😆
Wonderful Ted.
Thanks. The bird was looking a little worn I thought. Time for a big molting and change feathers. That’s a hot humid swamp area.
Lovely photos!
Thank you very much 😁😁. Probably the last for a while. Their rookery usually gets taken by White Ibis after all the young Herons are gone.
