Скачать или смотреть Blue Heron Eggs Hatching April 2020

Great blue heron eggs hatching! We have been watching this reiger or heron nest here in Pijnacker, South Holland, The Netherlands. What is cool is that these heron left the colony and started a nest on their own. Normally they nest in groups. These heron must be respecting the corona times as well! In any event, it offers beautiful sights of these majestic heron, flying and working on and around the nest.

Now the eggs from the herons are hatching! So cool. Nice weather too for them. Here are some images and you see two fledgelings or actually just hatched baby heron heads bobbing around!

You will also see in the nature video the heron eating a fish and cleaning the nest, throwing out the hatched egg shells.
