Wildlife Photography | Game of Thrones
In honor of tonight’s season 4 premier, I bring you my own version of Game Of Thrones.
Just as much drama, vying for territory and ruler-ship.
There may be some love stories in the Great Blue Heron rookery as well.
Photographed at the Sterling Nature Center, except for the last image which was at Montezuma. According to a kind, older couple I met at the nature center…I missed the real action by just a couple of days. They said the real war was the day the herons moved back in and took claim to their real-estate, deciding who would get which nests. Crazy how much change can happen in a week. I was just there last Sat., all iced over and only full of squabbling Canada Geese. One week later, a completely different story to be told.
Soon enough now the nests will be full of hatching chicks and sibling rivalries.
