Fledglings 2012-03-12 These are Anhinga chicks. Already learning how to hold their wings out for drying even though they haven't left the nest. Seen at the Venice FL rookery. Many thanks for the comments on the papa Anhinga shot.

Look what I found for you, dear 2012-03-11 A male Anhinga bringing home some nest-building material. Many thanks for the comments on yesterday's Egret shot. Much appreciated.

Great Egret 2012-03-10 As seen at the Venice FL rookery. And thanks for the comments on my buzzard picture. Update: @RuSu - the brighter green is due to active hormones this time of year.
