Great series Ted. I really like the two pals fishing together. Seen this before, but maybe not quite that close. Not close enough to frame them in one shot. :)

[MarkEvan]

Great shots all of them.

Excellent series here Ted and I like the treatment on the whites especially the third, second last and last images. Looks like your GBH curse has been lifted as now you get them with wings wide open and paired up with Great Egrets...Very nice!!

Great set of photos, You sure got the whites working for you.

[timbernet]

Great shots all of them.

These are a pleasure to view Ted. The exposures on the whites is excellent. The Egret with lunch is my favourite.
