Empty nest
I came here to Clove Lakes today to capture any number of possible subjects. Nature, candid’s, scenic. But one thing for sure was the Great blue heron’s nest, I’ve captured here the last two years.
When I was her last some 2 or 3 weeks ago, photographing cormorants fishing I noticed the nest remained empty for at least an hour. That should have never happened as the parents were old enough to have chicks, and one parent would have always remained by the nest.
The most logical thing to guess is that something happened to the chicks. We had a very cold spring this year and maybe it was too cold for the eggs to survive.
Whatever happened to them it was going to be an empty nest this year.
