Mother Heron Gets Attacked by Her Hatchings

This video was taken: 2024_06_05 - A mother gets attacked by her kids. If you as a parent think you have it tough sometimes, take a look at this video.
I was shooting stills when I noticed something that I thought might be good in video. This video is really interesting if you can watch it one frame at a time. These hatchling herons were about 5 to 8 weeks old. They evidently were hungry. They thought mom would have some food. It seems she didn't have what they wanted. Mom is the bird in the front with her back to the camera. She is the one with the fully developed feathers.
