We were walking along the Clinch River and I noticed a Great Blue Heron nest, the bird appeared to be feeding chicks or maybe arranging sticks in the nest. Sorry for the shakiness but when you zoom in that far every little wiggle becomes a giant wobble.

Fauna Friday
Today, let's check in on my Indian Ringneck, Shamsie. She's been sitting on her eggs for a while now (there are 5), they won't hatch as they aren't fertilized..... but instinct is strong and she will brood them for a time before she decides she's had enough of that.

"For cryin' out loud, can't a girl nest in peace? Bug off!" |
