It is Heron Nesting season here and at the Heron Sanctuary there is a whole lot of building going on!! It looks like Heron Condos in the sky!!
Here is one heron sitting on its nest, the blue sky behind a nice backdrop!!
The heron sanctuary is located across a small river and to take these pictures we went up on the dyke systems that ran through the farmer's fields.
It was a beautiful sunny warm day, just right for construction!!
From a distance all the black spots you see are heron nests. Lots of them!!!

Nice photos. It must be nice to see so many herons. I saw two today they very interesting birds.
That's a lot of nests! I imagine this will be quite the sight when eggs start to hatch.
The dark color branches of the branches makes the light blue sky look really pretty!
great skywatch.
Very nice captures! Happy SWF :)
that first shot is wonderful enlarged...and the one with all the nests WOW
I have never seen so many herons/nests at one place. I had no idea they would build nests so close together. Apparently, they all remember whose is whose!
Really, really nice! Great birds.
LOL, that is fantastic -- especially that last photo w/ all the nests!
Hope you're having a wonderful w/e.
Great nature shots...and filled with wonderful textures and contrasts.
I love the herons...
Ms.Dew: You did the same photos I did for camera critters for SWF. These heron rookeries have many uses.
