p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Jefferson Island Spoonbills


Went out to Jefferson Island today. The weather started off with some nice clouds, which led to good light and cooler temperatures!

Any feedback appreciated!

All the best,
Tyler

Great images! I especially like the egret image (it leaves me wondering whether one of the youngsters could down that whole meal)! I also especially like the last image. Great work on these, and thanks for sharing!

I believe that's a cattle egret with the snake for its babies. It's a great shot, as are all the others. Good job.

Thanks, everybody!

Kwilliam8 - I was wondering about that as well! I got distracted and by the time I turned back I could no longer see the snake... Not sure if it fell into the nest and out of my vision, or if they ate it. Certainly very different from the usual regurgitant food that the parents bring in!

Soupy - Ah, yes. You are right! Thanks for the correction. It's a cattle egret.
