コロニー / Colony
前回の観察から再び二週間後のコロニー。
The colony again two weeks after the last observation.
The chicks of Grey Heron and Great Egret have grown up quite well.

Great Cormorants are still busy, too.

The Black-crowned Night Heron situation is not clear no matter how many times I look at it. They seem to be harboring eggs, but it is difficult to see the nest in the first place.

A juvenile Grey Heron that has gone from looking like a pterosaur to looking more like its parent bird.

They are no longer pterosaurs as well. Is the parent bird sheltering the chicks from the heat of the day?

I also observed the Carrion Crow nest. Two weeks ago they were hairless and their eyes were not even open, but now they are all crows.
