Description
Fine art greeting-sized wildlife photograph capturing two tiny hatchling great white herons (ardea alba) poking their heads up in their nest. Their mom or dad is keeping them safe and warm while it keeps an eye out for its mate to return. Mated egrets take turns setting on the eggs and take turns caring for the young birds after they hatch. While one parent sits in the nest, the other is out hunting for food for the chicks. This image of baby birds in the nest was captured near Elkhorn Slough on the Monterey Peninsula. Fine art prints available for sale. ŠKathleen Bishop 2014.
