No stills today; I am behind on my videos and trying to catch up! I’ll get back to the photos as soon as I can!!  Hope you enjoy the videos.
In the first video, Wynd has found a piece of fish and in trying to hold it down to work on it, she gets it stuck to her talon.  Takes a while to work it out.  http://youtu.be/l_Y59hFi8Uc
In the second video, Ice picks up a stick and pokes at Wynd with it.  Then Ice tries to place it in its proper place – as if practicing for when he is grown-up.  Wynd annoys him with her wing wapping.  http://youtu.be/wzYG67FNDQQ

If ever the term “coy” or maybe “shy” or “bemused” could be applied to a great blue heron – who is usually bossy, raucous, grumpy and noisy –
perhaps this candid shot would be my chance.
