3 nestlings in skimpy high nest, now roughly 6 weeks old.
Détails de l'observation
Low nest, 1 adult sized young. Standing in low nest, seems content to be there. It is roughly 8 weeks old, but we do not have an exact hatching date. No sign that it was hungry. If it is not already leaving and returning to the nest, it should be in the near future. High nest, 3 nestlings, about 6 weeks old, quiet and content today. No begging. They appear at times to be feeding on something in the bottom of the nest. Adult heron was hunting the edge of the pond. None of the nestlings appeared to be paying much attention, even after it caught a Bullfrog and had quite a time subduing and eventually swallowing it. Once the frog was swallowed, adult then flew up and perched on the pier and preening for the next half hour, at which time we departed. Don't know which nest belongs to this adult.
