Description
Fine art wildlife photograph of 3 egret hatchlings. These great white heron chicks were left alone in the nest while their parents are hunting for food in a nearby creek. They seem to be enjoying the sunshine on a warm spring day as they await the arrival of their next meal. Egret parents take turns setting on the eggs and brooding and feeding the baby herons until they fledge. There are 4 species of herons raising families together in this huge tree and the birds mostly get along, with the exception of snowy egrets, which are very territorial.
