The Roseate Spoonbill babies get all the hype, but there are other little ones making debuts at the Orlando Wetlands.
Some Great Egret chicks have hatched recently. As cute at the little spoonies are, the little Great Egrets are, well, terrifying. If you ever doubted the connection between birds and dinosaurs, one look at a little egret chick should convince you.
The recent Common Gallinule offspring are a little rough looking as well – but at least they’re not frightening.
Wood Stock babies should be arriving soon, as some parents have been busy keeping their nests up to date.
And a couple of Great Egrets seem to be a little behind in the mating game. They were busy flirting the evening I visited.
