Description
Fine art wildlife photograph of a Great White Heron, aka, Great Egret (Ardea alba) lifting off from the treetops in a large heron rookery in Sonoma County, California. It's the beginning of their breeding season and this elegant heron's lores are flushed with dayglo green - a sign that he's begun to breed with his mate. He will make many flights from their nesting site to gather sticks for nest building. He presents his offerings to his mate and watches as she uses them to construct a sturdy nest in a tall eucalyptus tree.
