Two pairs of Great Egret chicks waiting for their parents to return with breakfast at the Venice Area Audubon Rookery, Venice, Florida.
I came across this pair in a very tender moment where they touched and I also was touched, for I've seen this behavior before. The parent in front and with that beautiful red eye and the sibling with no color in the eye or in the feathers, they were inseparable, and thought that this image said it all folks, it did for me.
Have a great day everyone and thank you for the visit.

Always nice to see females with eggs! They're such good mothers though that they're infuriating, as they constantly lean towards the lens, to protect their brood!!

Elasmucha grisea can reach a length of 6.5–8.8 millimetres (0.26–0.35 in). Males are smaller than females. These medium-sized shieldbugs are usually brown-reddish, but there are also gray (hence the Latin species name grisea) and green-brown specimen. Connexivum is black and white. The upperside is covered with several dark dots. The scutellum usually shows an evident black patch. The ventral face is largely punctuated with black. Lateral corners of the pronotum are simply beveled. The front corners of the pronotum show a more pronounced tooth. Antennas are blackish in the male, dark brown in the female. This species, like other parent bugs possess methatoracic and abdominal glands, which discharge a foul smelling secretion. This secretion is used to deter potential enemies and is sometimes released when the bug is disturbed.

These are my parents, Dick and Sue. Mom is sick with CBGD, a rare neurological degenerative disease. My dad takes really good care of her. Yesterday was her first full day in her new wheelchair. Check out www.wemove.org to find out more about CBGD and other rare motion disorders.
I am thankful for my family.
