Nice job on these we are here now but heading out this morning for Wakodahatchee!
I'll be at Wakotahatchee sometime this week too. I've gotten my best images there before sunset based on where the sun comes up, but the locations of nests changes every year. It's an amazing place.

Little to add to all the compliments.., a joy to watch these!
Snowy is aiming for the front page of vogue.
One question: how did the egret balance on that branch?! He/she seems to have their toes hanging over the branch almost too casually.
Good question. It was right before the sun was up and I was busy trying to find a reasonable ISO level. In retrospect, it sure does look like a precarious perch. This egret was busy defending "his" branch as others came over. Moments later he was gone.
