Woodstork Colony
(Jax Zoo) -
March 18, 2006 |
|
These pictures were all taken on
March 18, 2006 at the
Jacksonville
Zoo Wood Stork Colony. Still no
hatchlings, but many storks are
sitting in the nests 'incubating',
while others are still actively
building nests of their own. Today
we also guided a small group from
Seminole (FL) Audubon through
the rookery. A picture of the group
is at the bottom of the page. |

The storks
feed (a little) and bathe in the
pond beneath the colony.

This
wood stork is braving the zoo's
resident Bald Eagle (there are two
eagles that can't be released back
into the wild), attempting to steal
food. |
