Wow is this nice! The robin egg blue sky, the detail in the feathers, what else can I say. This one gets a Grand Prize without doubt!

With wings that size it must be easy flying, once the jumbo takes off. Fantastic shot again, EJ.

This is such an amazing capture! I think it is hard to capture things in movement,and you did it, and made it look wonderful! I also love how his white wings contrast the bright blue sky! Breath taking!

Just like an angel, EJ! I've probably said something like that before, but when they seem to be gliding and all in white, that is what I think of. Beautiful capture!

Hi E.J.

You make taking a great close of a flying Egret look effortless when I know it's really hard to do. The only birds that stand still enough for me to take are stuffed ones.

Been meaning to comment on this...while many if not most of your bird shots are fantastic this really stands out for me...the stop action, the splay of wing span, the creamy white against a light blue sky...almost angelic...just gorgeous, EJ...faved.

Now THIS is fantastic!! It looks like one of the Asian paintings on silk. Perfect Egret...with wings that make it look as tho it is wearing a shroud/cape. Very very lovely photo. I miss the Egrets, here in ORegon we have Bloo Herons..and they are pretty, but not like the Great Egrets in Louisiana. Thanx for the memories and for a gorgeous photo. Verena
