On the last day of May we drove to Lake Martin, taking my youngest son with us. Below are the little blue heron youngsters. Not sure of their age, but certainly old enough to start foraging for themselves. Notice the green legs and blue feathering on the rump; these are indicative of the juvenile little blue heron.

what beauty that you are sharing today. so nice!!! ( :
Absolutely amazing Gail. You should really consider getting your photos published in book form.
Oh my goodness, wonderful shots Gail! Hope your weekend was a good one.
These are incredible photos Gail. I had no idea that they were white as youngsters!
I didn't know there were 'Little Blues.' We only have 'Great' ones AFAIK.
Lovely images of the Little Blues! They are one of my favorite herons! Happy Tuesday!
Little beauties.
gor-jus shots.
Bird ain't half-ugly either!
Very nice. Your bird photos are just excellent. I hope you had a great weekend.
These are amazing!

Stunning shots and I didn't know about the green legs.
so very cool! i'd love to see a little blue in ANY stage of life!
Awesome, as always. Gotta love those green legs!
These are really great, Gail.
Perfect photographed, my compliments.
Greetings Irma
Gorgeous. So white and clear and sharp.
Always enjoying seeing egrets on our trips to Chincoteague NWR but have never seen young ones. They are quite beautiful, as all children are...
Little blue never looks little in a picture.
Looks like he's growing from stems with those green legs! Wonderful shots as always Gail!
Cute little buggers, aren't they?! Fantastic photos as usual!
White Blue Herons? Here, they are gray (with a little blue, perhaps?)...not nearly as exotic looking as yours!
prachtig om ze zo in de bomen te zien.
I would have had absolutely no idea that this was a baby blue" had I seen it in person. (Right there is the difference between an amateur and a professional birder like yourself!). Wonderful pictures.
This white eyes are really wonderful. And I didn't know this is the so beautiful baby blue!
Your pictures are really stunning, Gail. Fantastic bokeh. You are so good at bird photography. Big compliments for the whole series. I love that picture with the heron with green legs. I have never seen that before. reetings from the Netherlands, Joke
Really beautiful bird !
Your photos are amaazing !
How gorgeous! Beautiful photos! I wish we had these little guys here.
Wow!!! GORGEOUS pictures of blue heron♡♡♡ I still cannot differentiate heron from egret(^^;) I think it's amazing they can perch trees with these thin legs like photographic :)
PS> Thank you SO much for your sweet comment for my post. I feel really grateful for your kindness.
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Beautiful shots. These birds look so sleek.
I would not have noticed the green legs had you not pointed it out. Interesting.
We hope to see lots of herons when we head to North Carolina this weekend...
stunning captures, this is a wonderful stage!!!
the green foilage in the background of these is exceptionally beautiful!!
Super pictures, Gail!
Look at you! Educating the world on immature Little Blue Herons!
Very nice.
Stunning shots and a fascinating bird. Love the green legs.
