Nesting Activities at the Audubon Swamp

Right now the Audubon Swamp at Magnolia Gardens Plantation is buzzing with nesting activity. Birds in the rookeries are busily building their nests and chicks have already hatched.  Since this wonderful habitat is almost on my doorstep, I have taken to checking on it regularly.  Here are a couple of images of a pair of nesting Great Egrets taken over the past couple of days.
