My pal, a friendly Great Egret...one of our daily bird visitors. He usually gets his fish "lunch" in our canal off the Myakka River, but if he's having no luck he'll come up and hunt my garden lizards or beg for fish or chicken scraps, lol. I love this shot of him under the dappled shadows of our Live Oak tree. Didn't save the original shot, so sorry for sm size but it's a DT I enjoy myself and thought other bird lovers might as well. :)

"Where there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see." ~Dorothea Lange
How lucky to have such a visitor! I'm glad you shared the tale about his antics, too! Nice capture.

He's so beautiful and you are so fortunate to have his come to your yard. I love the colors in his beak. I like this shot of him in the dappled sunlight too. A really nice and thoughtful post. Thanks for sharing this great bird, Linda.
