Tri-colored Heron chicks- SW Medical Center, Dallas Co., June 8, 2003

This species was recorded as a nesting bird in the NC-Texas area (barely) in the early eighties on Cedar Creek Lake (Kaufman\Henderson cos.). There was a Tri-colored Heron seen on a nest at heron rookery in Dallas County in 1990, but it was never known if chicks hatched. The chicks in this picture represent the second confirmed nesting record for the area north of Kaufman County and the first with confirmed hatched young.
