Got out to Wakodahatchee Wetlands over the weekend and found this baby Tricolor Heron. I don't believe he is over a day old as he still had the 'bobble head' every time he looked around.
I would have argued the age due to the open eyes... But seeing the other eggs - - no discussion. MY Lovebirds are born with their eyes closed. I just thought . . . . BUt I guess that's all individual within each specie....
Thanks everyone for the kind words! Went back today, and will try to get some processed in the next day or so.

Congratulations to your wonderful find.

You could very well be correct Lil, I was just going by the fact that his neck was so obviously weak.
To clarify, the eggs are on another nest.
