Herons and Egrets Wait for Fish Coming Through Spillway Locks

Bonnet Carre' Spillway with Montz in background

The balance of nature is more remarkable than the balance of man. The River rises at just the time when the birds have babies in the nest to feed, bringing fresh fish right to their doorstep almost.

They know how to hunt easily. Well observed, Coleen. V.

They don't have the worry of the damage and problems....they just know they can feed their young.

Looks like they've found just the right spot. What a collection!
