Happy Thankful Thursday!
I am happy to be able to watch the Great Blue Herons on their nest, so close to home. Sometimes I could see the herons on the tree tops from my kitchen window.

This is a view of the nest and a Great Blue Heron standing off to the side of the nest. If you look closely (where the blue line is) you can see the head and beak of a heron in the nest.
There are two heron's nest close together, one below has more pine tree branches in the way.
This is a view of the fire road, we like this walk from our house. This was around 2.2 mile roundtrip walk from our house.
Early morning moon.
A Pileated Woodpecker working on a hole off the fire road. The Pileated Woodie knocking on the trees sounds so loud.
Two herons standing close to their nest.
The herons nest is harder to see now that the leaves are on the trees, but we can here the heron chicks. I think they are doing well.
Below, I was standing on the fire road and I could see at least 5 herons and maybe 3-4 nesting areas and one heron flying. I circled in blue the herons and nest. There are more nest across from my neighbors home.
The Scarlet Tanager is a breeder in the forest next to our home. I saw this bird land in a tree as we walked on the fire road.
April's full moon.
I am really thankful for the online library, I have read most of Louise Penny's Chief Inspector Armand Gamache series. Only a few left to read.
I am thankful for Spring, even though it was slow to arrive.
I am thankful to be able to watch the herons and their nest.
