Nesting Great Blue Herons

Great Blue Herons at Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands in Viera Florida

Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands in Viera Florida (commonly called Viera Wetlands) is great place for bird photography. The final stage settlement ponds have been converted to idea habitat for all the common, and some of the uncommon, birds of North Central Florida. There are many nests of Great Blue Herons, mostly on the broken off stumps of palms standing out in the water. Here we have a sequence of the male bringing in a fresh branch and the female receiving his gift. Sony RX10iv at 600mm. Program mode. 1/1000th @ f4 @ ISO 100. Processed in Polarr.
