Two of the three immature green herons (aka Fuzzheads), waiting near their nest for their parents to deliver breakfast. Their more adventurous sibling is exploring a nearby branch. Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

"Shh. Be veeeewy quiet. I'm hunting dwagonfwies."

Our baby green herons are growing up fast and although they are now wandering away from the nest they still aren't ready to be on their own. This one and his two siblings, still wearing their baby fuzz, had just been fed by one of the parents and were sitting in the tree near the nest, waiting for the arrival of more food.

Attempt #2 with the new macro lens. It takes a bit of getting used to, but I think I've learned how to go at the subject with the manual focus. Well, you tell me -- how's it look?

As a sidenote, the camera with the new lens is very heavy. It's too bad all the mechanisms are so sensitive, because I could probably bludgeon an auroch to death with it.

And I deserve points for using the word "auroch."

Juvenile green heron. Even as fuzzy headed youngsters the green herons look grouchy. Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
