I caught this Snowy Egret hunting in a small stream. While standing on one leg, it would shake its other near the bottom of the stream. Any small animal that might be disturbed and try to swimm away would be snatched up and eatten. The amazing thing was that the bird did not cloud the water as it moved along.

I agree with Owd Momma, Garrett. A perfect capture. It should go to the perms right now.

He looks very intent on finding his next meal. I have never seen a Egret so white. He is a beauty and a great job on this one.

Superb capture of this snow white beauty, Garrett! Tack sharp and beautiful natural colours! I really like the ringlets around it's legs and the pose you caught! Your "hunting" paid off exceptionally! :)
