Sighting Robins this time of year indicates spring is not far away. Not to far a Great Blue Heron rookery is becoming populated. Another sign of spring. The Mergansers had no intention of hanging around after discovering me in their space. The Mallards are a skidish bunch. I had disturbed a couple groups prior to what I finally was able to get some photos of.

i'd love to see a heron or egret rookery! well, i'd be pleased just to find one nest. :)
What beautiful shots, especially the Great Blue Heron nests!
Your Great Blue Heron rookery looks really neat~so different from the palm tree ones here in Florida. Ours don't seem to be having a very successful year...many have already abandoned their nests.
Hi Larry...Fantastic pic's wow!!
The rookery is amazing something you don't see here
The duck shots are wonderful especially the female Mergansers taken of "nice"!!
I have already seen a Robin, but I will get excited when I see a huge flock of them ; )

Beautiful birds Larry, I love the first one, the photo is remarkable.
Larry, you capture the beauty of the birds perfectly--Especially the mallards in flight!
I would like to use 1-2 of your photos of the blue heron rookery on a signage project. Please contact me and let me know if it is okay and how to credit you. Thank you.
