Re: Getting to Know an egret
He was a cool little fellow to watch. Before I was into photography I was a hard core bird watcher, I learned the way of the camera to use it as a tool to study the way of the bird. I'm glad I did, photography is one of those things you can do when ever you have the time.. much as I like it though, Just watching the Birds is still as captivating for me now as it was when I picked up my first Petersons Guide to the Birds and tried to ID them in the field.

Re: Getting to Know an egret
Al, I love, love the first image. There is something about how he disappears into the water only to reappear in the reflection. :D I love snowys, they are such characters. I got a break from parent sitting this weekend. I will post a few from today.

Beautiful subject. I love one picture in particular but can't reference it on my phone. So lucky to have subjects like this near you. Can't wait till you process the rest of the pics

Thanks Pat and Ricardo!

Re: Getting to Know an egret
These are gorgeous Al. I particularly love the one when he is just lifting up out of the water, wings spread, shockingly yellow feet dangling. It is absolutely stunning. I can see you jammed in that little tree. I've seen your patience and attention while taking photos. It doesn't surprise me he held you there for so long. Every time I drive by Mount Hope, I still see you there getting the perfect shot. Some day, when time allows, maybe you will share a few of those. That was an amazing day....
