I got to the Viera Wetlands late this afternoon and the sun was really harsh.
I did find one willing subject who seemed to love to pose for the camera. Here are some of the different poses.

Wow, those are fantastic. Great poses from the egret. This was in full sun? Well done with the exposure.

Thanks much for all the great comments. All credit goes to the Egret, a photographer
is not much without a good model.

Again, thank you very much.
