Here is one more egret capture that Phil (gonedigital) took, and sent to me, and gave me permission to edit, and post here on Caedes.

I have more images of these lovely birds, but they are on hold till I get them edited.

Here is a bit of info on these lovely birds.- The little egret is a small white heron with attractive white plumes on crest, back and chest, black legs and bill and yellow feet. It first appeared in the UK in significant numbers in 1989 and first bred in Dorset in 1996. Its colonization followed naturally from a range expansion intro western and northern France in previous decades. It is now at home on numerous south coast sites, both as a breeding species and as a winter visitor. It is included on the Amber List as rare breeding species.

I appreciate the comments, thank you. I hope you have a nice day. We had snow yesterday, and today it's cold but going to be sunny.
