Description
This photo was taken in St. Augustine, Fl.at the Alligator Farm. Especially during Spring months visitors are able to experience up close and personal various wading birds in mating plumage. These active birds mate, build nests, and care for their young in a natural habitat, and sometimes they are only feet away from the visitor! This image depicts two little egret chicks gazing up and lovingly saying " We Love You Mama." It would make a lovely Mother's Day Card, or another type of greeting card!
The below description is taken from the Alliagaor Farm website.
Native herons, egrets, ibis, spoonbills and wood storks seek the security of their Alligator Swamp to roost and raise their young. With hundreds of alligators swimming beneath the oak branches, the birds know their young are safe from tree-climbing predators. The wooden walkway allows for incredibly intimate views of Florida's magnificent wading birds on their nests. Photographers achieve award-winning shots here every year.
