Baby Dennis's are Here!

Today we spotted two baby Dennis' (actually, baby Heroes) visiting the pond, which means they fledged and left the nest.

To be specific, they are juvenile tri-colored Heron, and they are VERY white with delightful light green legs.

At first, Hero (our regular adult tri-colored Heron) said "Hailll Nooooo" and chased them away repeatedly.  Now, he's given up and is just grooming next to them, accepting the fact that they're going to spend the day here with him.  Hero, there are plenty of fish here, relax.....

OUR FAVORITE TRICOLOR HERON

Here he is, looking sharp, sporting his "Breeding" colors and his special white hat, it's our boy, HERO!
