Fishing

Immediate neighborhood update:  The Capizio nest is now empty. Babies have fledged.  Ledger is still in residence, higher up. Same grungy toe, same grungy feathers, same long baby beak. Pecking at building putty.
Traffic sign kids growing. There are three babies in this  nest. Runt is usually hidden behind the aggressive chicks. Construction continues upstairs.
Oy!  Turtle got to about 1 1/2 blocks from the lake to lay her eggs. She was burying the eggs when I spotted her.  No point worrying. The raccoons will find and eat the eggs.
Egret at Turtle Pond, elegance in action.
Down the hatch
I want to see an egret catch a frog.
