Won't be long before they start to venture out a tad

First time I've seen the fourth one. Based on its size, it either isn't getting much to eat or it was born way after the others.

Mom did have them out of the nest, but they were behind their nesting tree. This was on my second loop.

New chicks just about every day now

Look close for this one. I wondered why I shot it, until I found the tiny head.

The Wood Storks have been terrorizing the Cormorants. Most of them have stood their ground, but it looks like the Cormorants lost. All of their nests are gone. The juvies that were old enough to move about are scattered around this end of the rookery. I can just imagine the fate of those that were to young.

There may be more, but these are the only nesting birds I've seen at Green Cay

They're all getting so big and with their nests gone, I'm not sure which they are any more.
