Description
Quite often when going to the Alligator Farm Zoological Park you will see different types of birds sharing the same space. It may be for just a few seconds or minutes or they may be nesting side by side. This tricolored heron and snowy egret in the photograph were not together for very long! I caught this shot and a few others of these two very quickly! The Alligator Farm is a fantastic place to get close up photographs of wading birds during Spring. The tricolored herons, green herons, cattle herons, great egrets, snowy egrets, ibis, roseate spoonbills and wood storks come here to mate, nest and raise their young. It is a photographer's paradise!

Awesome find Lydia! It looks like the Tricolored Heron is standing on the back of the Egret! Love the feathers on both beautiful birds.
