Here’s another shot from last weekend in Florida at the Venice Rookery. The mother great blue heron is in the process of regurgitating her food to feed to her two young. The two chicks are almost as big as the mother at this point and will leave the nest soon (usually at about 10 weeks old).

I think I need this photo!! Love it
Nice shot Crane, kind of looks like a painting…P.S.- I always thought that Great Blue Heron chicks left the nest at 9.5 weeks. My bad!
