Great Blue Herons Making a Nest

My friend told me about this place where there are 30 - 40 heron nests at the very top of trees in a wooded area only a mile from my house. In fact, it is steps from the. bike trail I have been riding up and down for years! I couldn't find a clear sightline but was able to focus (more or less) by shooting between branches.
Fantastic! I can't wait to go there with you!

@taffy Don't forget to wear boots/hiking shoes or something that allows you to step into water. Oh, and wear clothes with surfaces that you can see ticks on and not knit fabrics.

Awesome capture and how fun to watch them handling the sticks. It is done so gentle. Enjoy watching them, can't wait to see more shots.

Looks like you got the focus down pretty well. Super capture.

Amazing shot!

Super capture! How lucky that they are in range of your lens, We have some nesting herons in 50-foot high palm trees near us but because they're up so high, it's hard to get a clean shot.

This looks amazing, I often wonder how they manage to stay up there together and build!.

Oh a wonderful capture of these two. We get complacent in familiar surroundings, glad your friend told you about the herons!

Gorgeous! We have a herony nearby, but I don't tell anyone! :-)

Beautiful captured. Due to the pandemic, I discovered many interesting places near my place of residence. But that's probably the only plus.

Great shot, what a wonderful opportunity

What a sight that is...the nest looks so precarious & delicate at this stage.

This is fantastic Junko! I’d love so much to see such a scene and I’m glad you can do it. Fav
