It's that time of the year again. So exciting to see these early birds "back at it"!
Only the one pair at the nests but others in the area so it won't be long now until all our palms are topped with nesting GBH. Taken at Viera Wetlands, Florida.

Canon 1D Mark III
600mm lens w/2X

1/800sec, f10 ISO 1600
(taken in first bright light)
Slight crop on the left.
