Description
"The Handoff" ©2022 Loree Johnson Photography. Great blue herons (Ardea herodias) incorporate nest building into their courtship behavior. After a nest site is selected, the male will make numerous flights to surrounding trees and bring sticks back to his mate. She takes each stick from him and paces it carefully and deliberately in the nest. Photographed at Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge, California.
