Great Blue Heron nest. This parent (on the right) is probably ready for these rowdy, adolescent offspring to leave the nest.

I would imagine the saying among Great Blues is something like:

"What are the two best days of a nesting pairs life?"

"The day your eggs hatch, and the day they leave the nest!"

A different nest, these little guys are probably 2-3 weeks younger. The parent regurgitated a fish for them, but it was too big for either of the youngsters to handle, so the parent just swallowed the fish again. LOL.

Shot 2 in the series above - trying to understand why I think its the position of flight combined with the background color in that shot

Good stuff all
