Observation details
Possibly hatched; can’t see inside the nest; including sound clip--Only in the first 3-4 minutes can the heron call be heard. This particular green heron--I think--intimidated a nearby (10-20 feet) nesting pair of common grackles. He is standing in the tree where they are nesting and one of them is less than a foot away. At one point he reaches out (quite a neck stretch!) and took a poke at the grackle who quickly left the area but only briefly, and returned with mate to attend to their nest.
