Took this picture of this young Great Egret saturday morning at creek in Nature Preserve...same morning when I seen Green Heron. He/she was walking here above bank of creek and eventually got back in water and continued fishing. This bird does have it's beautiful Spring breeding plumage which was a detriment to them over a hundred years ago when they were hunted exclusively for this plumage which was used in hats.
