The videos below show great blue herons flying carrying twigs, landing on their nests, and then giving the twigs to their mates who place them in the nest. The first video is short and has the highlights in slow motion. The second video is the full version.
(I posted photos of great blue herons building nests in Concord several years ago on my other blog: 3/25/11 IV - 3/25/11 III - 1/29/11 IV - 4/29/11 III - 4/29/11 I.)
