MAKING A NEST....

.... well the day had to come and today was it! We sadly wished our two wonderful grand daughters and their Mum and Dad off on their exciting journey to Germany for approximately 12 to 18 months.

On our way home spotted a blue heron flying up into a gum tree. Stopped and grabbed the camera to find Mum was up in the branches making a nest and Dad was busy bringing up the twigs.

Check out the trouble it had to go to, being dive bombed by a couple of noisy minors on Flickr starting here

Enjoy and have a look in LARGE
