We encourage “nesting” at DeBordieu, in more ways than one! And there’s no place the egrets in the neighborhood like better than “The Egret Tree” behind the MILLER HOUSE on Island Green. While showing the house today, I shot a little video:
Nesting is a natural instinct shared by birds and humans alike, when preparing a home for their families. In birds it is known as “going broody”, and is characterized by the insistence to stay on the nest as much as possible, and by laying new eggs.
Egrets nest in colonies, building nests in medium-sized trees. The nests are built of small sticks, usually over or near water, and sometimes lined with softer materials like grasses. Usually, 3, pale bluish-green eggs are laid. Both parents take turns incubating the eggs and feeding the chicks.
This colony of egrets is nesting in DeBordieu Colony, on a gorgeous tree, in the middle of a l
agoon in the Island Green neighborhood, across the street from the beach.
The pictures were taken from the back porch of the Miller Home, which is an incredible value, currently for sale at $1,175,000.
