Finally a Portrait of Great Egret





My last visit to Farmington Bay was great, I saw again Snowy egrets. 

The male was so close that I was able to take his portrait. 

The female was more cautious. 

She all the time stayed far away.


It's interesting that Snowy egrets are not the early birds, 

they usually show up on a marsh around ten o'clock in the morning

 and stay till noon.

  2. they need their beauty sleep so they are late to wake up. They are so beautiful I love when I see them at Pismo Beach (California Central Coast). When we stay there I get up early and walk out of the hotel down to the beach where they gather in the late morning!

    I love your photos so much and this one is a beauty!

    Have a great day.
