The proper term is "heronry," but the locals know this spot in a swamp several miles southwest of Ontonagon in upper Michigan as "the rookery." We counted seven nesting Great Blue herons there the other day, and as always I wished I had a really long (such as 600mm) lens instead of having to crop the hell out of a shot taken with a 300mm. All the same, the results seem acceptable.

This looks just exactly like the rookeries in the diametrically oppositely located Cajun swamps of southern Lousiana - except I do not see any alligators eyeballing errant fledglings up there in Ontonagon. Laissez les bon temps rouler.
