Great Egret

This month I have featured photos I took from three days of hiking at the Orlando Wetlands Park. I spotted this bird taking off on my first hike.

It must have been amazing hiking, judging by the beautiful shots and scenes.

@ludwigsdiana The first day I didn’t see as many birds as I did the other two days… I was more focused on hiking… but the other two days I took different trails and it was amazing. I want to go back there and spend more time watching bird behaviors and of course shooting more photos.

Such large graceful birds but I am curious as to how they stand on those skinny little spindle like legs!

A lovely shot with the open wings of the egret and the layers of greens and grey-blues. Fav! (What an amazing place! I have been enjoying all your photos from there. I hope you get back there some day, as you expressed to Diana. That would be great for you and us both :)
