"La provincia es Tucumán. En este lugar tuve la suerte de observar a una pareja de garzas, un ejemplar inmaduro y otro adulto, durante varios meses. Me llamó mucho la atención el comportamiento del adulto, siempre manteniéndose cerca del inmaduro, pero respetando su espacio. A medida que el joven crecía, esta dinámica se hacía cada vez más evidente, mostrando el cuidado y la paciencia del adulto en este. En Tucumán siempre observé un solo adulto y un juvenil.
