Lake Martin is a bald cypress - tupelo swamp and bottomland hardwood forest habitat, of which 9,500 acres are protected and maintained by the Nature Conservancy. The swamp is located within the Cypress Island Preserve, in Saint Martin Parish, between Breaux Bridge and Lafayette in Southwest Louisiana. The spectacular wading bird rookery supports thousands of nesting birds each spring. Shown in this video clip include nesting and fledgling little blue herons (juveniles are white), roseate spoonbills, great egrets; and a black-crowned night heron.

I'm a regular visitor to the Cypress Island Preserve and really enjoyed the video.
I admire your perseverance but do hope you had on rain gear. ;-)
