Egrets and Herons

After seeing tons of white pelicans on the drive through Ding today, we were almost to the end when we came upon a couple of snowy egrets, a couple of tri-colored herons, and several little blue herons in their white phase. I haven’t seen so many in one spot before. I’m looking forward to catching photos of them as they get their blue feathers in the future.

The snowy egret is a little bully (aka bad ass) when he wants to be.

See that rock over there? That’s your rock. This one is MINE.

Ahhhhh.

So many Little Blue Herons in their white phase in one spot.

This Tri-Colored Heron still has a little of the brown from his juvenile feathers.

Today, I received an email that my alligator reflection photo was published in the January 2021 issue of Wild Planet Photo Magazine. You can see info about my feature in the publication here - https://wildplanetphotomagazine.com/event/exhibition-gallery/

I was very honored to have my photo featured and it was a great way to start out 2021.
