Black-crowned night heron with its eggs at the Ocean City Rookery.

No birds were harmed in taking this image. I am way above the nesting area, on a bridge. This rookery offers a rather unique opportunity to be above the birds and peek into the nests.

Good to go.

We went to the Wairepo Kettleholes Conservation Area in search of Black Stilts, while we didn't see any Black Stilts, we did see several Pied Stilts, some were nesting.

Got out to Gator-land Orlando today, had great time. Lots of herons and egrets nesting and some hatched. There are a lot of try-colored herons hatched up to one month old chicks. Cattle egrets started nesting!

Superb starling ready to bring more nesting material for its nest.

This was another sign of spring this week. The squirrel had quite the mouthful of nesting material. Happy Fence Friday!

Great Egret brings in a twig for a nest. That's his mate low in the tree waiting for the egret to land, turn and pass the twig.

I have over 100 folders of unprocessed photos from the past 6 years which I’m currently going through, this is one of the photos from that group. Many of these re-visit an already posted subject. I've finished folder 15 and am now on 16 - that has 5 subfolders!!!

At least two each of Roseate Spoonbills, Great Egrets and Cattle Egrets nesting in the island rookery of the Delores Fenwick Nature Center in Pearland, Texas. I count ten nests in this photo.

Thanks for all the faves and kind comments!

This is a nesting box right by our patio and I must have missed the laying of the eggs. I have watched the male and female flying in and out with worms so assume the eggs have hatched. I have not heard any peeps yet, but will keep you posted:) The brown thrashers have young ones peeping in a bush down a bit and the mockingbirds too. I love watching the birds this time of year.

Before I get back to my shots taken last week at the Wetlands, here is something from home. When I bath and brush Harry lately I've been getting a whole other dog worth of hair and so I've pegged it to the clothesline hoping the birds would use it for nesting. So look who is nesting again!

I just really liked this neat and comfortable looking nest. I was later surprised to find she was brooding nine chicks at the time.

It was interesting to see how the coots nested on a rock in the duck pond.
