Great Egret Couple Stick Courtship
With this Stick I Thee Wed, Cutting the Cake, we are not the only species that forms bonds through rituals!! One of the highlights of Spring is watching the displays of Herons and Egrets as they try to attract a mate through elaborate dances or things such as a simple stick or in this case a exchange of a leaf!! Usually one bird will build the nest and send its mate out for that special stick that must be the correct size!! This is followed by praise, displays and more sticks!! It is amazing to watch and try to photograph!! Happy Monday and as always thanks for your comments and favorites!!
