This Green Heron fledgling has grown up very fast. Usually I have seen 3 babies for the past 2 yrs at this nesting site. It must have been easier for the parents to take care of one fledgling. It was turning it's head to the click of the camera.

Hi Jemma, sorry. FOY is First of the Year. It is always fun to see things for the first time as they are returning and know you get to enjoy them all summer. :)
Great capture Jemma. Thanks for sharing! Just saw my FOY green heron last week. They are just returning here.

Thank you Stefania!
