The reddish is the most animated of all the egrets, I love the way you captured his playful nature and signature reddish crown

A spectacular set of photos of an egret not seen much in So, Cal. . The presentation seems to build with each photo. All shots are colorful and tack sharp and the commentary indicates you enjoyed the show as well. Were these shot in the San Diego area by any chance ? #11 sets the tone for detail for sure.

Laura and Bill:

Thanks for the comments.

Bill:

These were shot in SW Florida at Little Estero Lagoon, Ft Myers, today. My 2nd visit there and a wonderful location with the RE very active both times.

Wow - these are awesome. Love the sharpness, the lighting and the poses. Interesting on #5 how you can see the reflection of the water. Wonderful shots. They make me feel like I am right there. Love the commentary too. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, those were fun to look at! What an entertaining series you captured. Beautiful Egret, #2 and 9 are sweet. Interesting challenge to capture the end of the bill being that it is jet black and sometimes seems to disappear. You did a fantastic job on all these, must have been fun to be there.

Wow, nice seriese of shots. I like #8 and #11 the most. The First two also caught my eye as the Rednes of the egret relly stood out from the wings.

Great images.
