Yellow-Crowned Night Heron chick imitates mama


Lessons from the nest. Wordless wonders. Yellow-Crowned Night Heron, watches mama move her wing. As if transferring study to practice, chick gives it a go. Just like kids and students who learn from modeling. (Brings insight to that message, "Be the change.")





Same with preening.




Reminds me of teaching. Lessons are caught rather than taught.
