This bird fascinated me from the first time I photographed it. Its very distinct nostril clearly separated it from all the others in the rookery. Its mannerisms were very elegant and royal.
They are such unique birds, so majestic. I love your photos so very much. I can always tell how sensitive you are to the Louisiana things, and I miss that area very much. I miss the people more than anything. That nest is just huge....thank you for your photos, I love them a lot. Verena
"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called. ~A.A. Milne
