High in the Tree

Spotted this Great Egret perched hit in a tree on the far side of the lake. Cropped this quite a bit but that's all I did. Was quite surprised to even bring him in. I'd always seen them down on the river bank.
Nice capture :-)

He looks pretty large and it looks like he is standing one one leg, right or is that his front leg in the foliage? You sure do see a lot of flora and fauna in a given day!

She's a beauty

@falcon11 She does appear to be standing on one leg there - my other shot I could see both legs, but it was a bit fuzzier. Before I became infatuated with 365, I never would have believed how many examples of nature were right under my nose here in town.

Great shot, I don't have much luck with birds, they take off as soon as they see me 8-)

I agree with Kathie! Great capture and love the white against the dark background.

Such a great capture of the bird. The white stands out so well against the tree.

Nice shot of the egret he is really relaxed because he is standing on one leg...He looks big with his feathers all fluffed up....
