It was a quiet day...didn't see too many birds. The Great Blue Herons were very vocal today. I saw four of them.
This past week birders had found Black-crowned Night-Herons in the Coves. Every time I go to the Coves, I am looking for them and Green Herons. I have not seen a Green Heron yet this year.
I feel so lucky today as I saw 3 Black-crowned Night-Herons. There were 2 adults and one juvenile. It's rare for me to find good birds like this. I had no idea where they were in the Coves. They came flying out of the trees following a Great Blue Heron. I don't know if they were chasing it or just flying around together but they were very vocal. They landed on a dead tree.

The Black-crowned Night-Heron is half the size of a Great Blue Heron.

The Great Blue Heron was below the juvenile and looking up at it.
The Black-crowned Night-Herons flew over to the other side of the pond high in the trees. The Great Blue Heron flew off to another tree.
