Animals Baby Great Blue Heron Chicks
Baby great blue heron chicks in their nest look up toward their mother in Delray Beach, Florida, on February 9, 2026. Great blue heron chicks usually fledge about 8-10 weeks after hatching, remaining dependent on their parents for food and protection for several weeks beyond that. (Photo by Ronen Tivony/NurPhoto)
