I had a small window of time this morning to take a drive through Ding. We had rain Saturday morning and also this morning. We had almost 2 inches of rain at our house over the weekend! YAY!!! We really needed it for our crunchy grass!
There are several Yellow-Crowned Night Heron nests on the Indigo Trail. We were only able to see the eggs in one of the nests, though.
We had a fly-by from some of the Yellow-Crowned Night Herons. The photo below is not cropped. It was just that close!
Then, moving on down Wildlife Drive. I always get excited when I see pink feathers in the distance! The Roseate Spoonbill below had dark pink and also the orange feathers, which means it is not a young bird.
I love the Little Blue Heron in the white phase, especially when the blue feathers are showing up.
For the most part, this group of Roseate Spoonbills were tucked in and waiting for the rain. I took a quick video of this one preening before it tucked in, too.
