On April 8, two Green Heron juveniles were observed at the colony on Heron Cove.  The nest was in their normal central tree, but to combat the excessive heat, the young were moved lower by the adults and subadult near the water to achieve maximum cooling properties.  There is also a second nest in the right hand tree, with the same safety elements in mind.

Today we found an Eastern Phoebe family with three juveniles and one adult.  This was one of the young charges, but they were hard to keep effectively corralled.

There's plenty more where that came from!
