Description
At the Ballard Locks on Saturday, Bill drew my attention to a few herons sitting in a tree. The longer we looked, the more herons we saw!
When I started looking at the images on the computer screen I saw even more herons. I'll give you a hint ... this shot contains more than ten!
A couple of those birds had cameras, and they were looking for Denise. One of them told me he's been trying to get a really good shot of her for months! He finally got a decent lens, and is hoping to catch her the next time she comes around.
.....
Full view pays.
I've left it large enough that you can rummage around in those tree branches and count birds.

LOL! I love it! I know that Denise will too. Outstanding shot/capture
I'm thinking I see 12 but I could be missing some. It is an amazing sight!
Looks like fishing is good in your neighborhood
Heron stalkers.....
I think I see 16, but a couple are bumps I'm not sure of. Excellent image! Wonderful to go looking for herons!
That is quite a perch! The search was fun, Clive
I see ten for sure and I have a question about a couple more. I love Hidden Object games so this was fun. I've seen them in water but not in a tree so this was great to see so many in the tree.
Lovely shot Tara I spotted 17 of them may have miss a few though lol. Beautiful posting..
:) Great shot~ I spotted 13 ~
I think I can see 14, they look a bit like candles on a Christmas tree,
I absolutely love this! I count 14. I've seen herons in oak trees in Tennessee like this, they are amazing birds!
One of them told me she's VERY elusive!! This just amazing!!
What fun! I see 16. I have deodar cedars in the next properties and they are full of crows and woodpigeons..not nearly so exotic!
Well I found the ten easily enough but everyone's comments made me go back. Found two more for sure. Very impressive capture. I wonder if this represents a pecking order of some sort?
LOL... great one Tara! Denise will love it! Hope they get a great shot of her!!!
LOL! I've only ever seen one solitary one at the locks, but I have seen their nests. They're such teasers! Maybe it's better that I never got to see a whole flock of them, it would probably mean that I'd have to quit photography because my grail would have been found... Lucky you, to get this wonderful shot!
HAHAHA I see 13 of them and a grey spot, I dont know what is :-) Hope they got a good shot of Denise :-D
I see 14. great shot! lucky you to have found so many!
I counted 12...I just love herons...when I drove along the river and I see them, they are so beautiful standing there with long legs and there color is beautiful...excellent shot
I see 14, I think this is amazing, only ever seen 3 together!!!!!
Amazing shot that is a lot of birds!
Wonderful Work!!
I think I read where their matting season begins in February. I think I heard a couple of proposals when I was not far from this tree. You've captured this sight perfectly. Great job.
13 I found wonderful capture sure had me looking :-) warm hugs, Linda Kaye
very good shot of them in the tree
I pretty sure of 13 but ....... That is quite a collection and an outstanding capture. Denise will have nightmares after seeing this. Dana

Well I saw 13 for sure .. And a possible .. But, that may have been a large twig! lol Great shot, wonderful... Rob
Wowee, lots of birds in that tree. I count 14 myself. What a great capture for sure. Nice work. Aloha
