BLACK-CROWNED NIGHT HERON, EAGLE LAKES COMMUNITY PARK, NAPLES, FL

   This Black-crowned Night-Heron is in the process of molting from a juvenile to an adult.  This generally occurs this time of year.  The bird has the black crown of an adult, but still has the yellow on the bill of a juvenile.  It does not yet have the black back of an adult.

   Not sure what the two Bald Eagles are doing here.  At first we thought they might be mating, but in looking it up, it seems they mate in the air at high altitude.
