A gentleman there also said two Snowy Egret checks also were discovered alive on the ground under the palms and were brought to the interpretive center. The speculation is that the Snowy nests were built by young parents on the outer palm fronds. The usual contingent of long lens bird photographers were present watching the continuing nesting Heron/Egret show. There are now two Great Egret nests in the penthouse suite, appearing to be incubating. Easily visible is a Snowy nest with two noisy chicks. The Night Herons seem to prefer the nesting site behind the Ranger's house, where the fallen chicks were discovered.
