Little Egret

I was absolutely excited when we came back from Sainsburys this morning and said "stop the car - there's an egret in the field". Because Steve hadn't seen one of these before (and neither had I), he obligingly stopped and I got out and took some pics. There were 2 of them picking around in the grass. I liked this pic because it shows his big yellow feet!

Oooh you got close. I see them quite regularly in the centre of Cambridge and out where I took them flying - they seem to be thriving.
