Congratulations Milt Berko
Green Heron Nestlings

I have been camping out by this Green Heron nest in Wakodahatchee for the past few days observing the Mama Heron and her little ones - 2 were hatched on Wednesday, the other on Thursday. This afternoon, Mama got off the nest for a short while and I was able to get a few images. It is a very difficult spot and angle but here it is, for better or for worse as the little ones never stay still and are continually in motion.

Milt that one was one of my favorites of all that I have ever seen and as you know I have seen a bunch of them. The recognition says a lot for the image and your hard work. Well deserved and I am pleased to see this.

I think I read that you are 83 ( i hope I am right) - I saw the duckling image in ETL. Nice clean image and great interaction, Pushed the shutter at just the right moment. Congratulations on a super image.
