Congratulations Mohammed, your grey heron chicks are our Spotting of the Day: "Complete with a beautiful bokeh, a telephoto lens provides a unique glimpse into the flat nest of sticks of two Grey Heron downy chicks (Ardea cinerea) in our Spotting of the Day! The chicks will fledge after being fed a diet of regurgitated fish by their parents for a few weeks. These chicks were photographed on Bubiyan Island, a large flat muddy island part of the Kuwait portion of the Mesopotamian Delta. This wetland ecosystem is known for the richness of its birdlife".
