Passing the Twig
What a beautiful sight. The larger male Giant Heron goes after the sticks and passes them on the the female as she sits and guards the nest so no one takes over. She then takes the stick and builds the nest. The male then goes after the next stick and on and on. This photograph was taken near Boynton Beach, FL on April 4, 2008.

This photograph was taken near Boynton Beach, FL on April 4, 2008.The bottom image is the original cropped. The top is the final cleaned up image using Photoshop CS3. By dodging and burning, I tried to put the emphasis on the heads and necks of the Giant Herons.
