RE: It's Nesting Time at the Rookery

The neck postures are just the beginning of their mating ritual. They raise and lower their necks, pumping up and down and then they spread those fan feathers out even further like a puffball. I was hoping to catch that on video, but just a week or two early I think. I won't be able to go back for another week or two, so hope I don't miss it this year and can catch it on video.
