Yesterday, I took my kayak out to take pictures of a Roseate Spoonbill (rare for my area), but got sidetracked by some Snowy Egrets. They allowed me to get within 50 feet or so while they were fishing. It was quite an experience watching them perching on a stump and then flying out to get their prey. Thanks for looking!

Doug, I absolutely love that last image! Really, really nice... I like the shadow of the first one on the second one's wing too, that's pretty cool!

Thanks for the comments.

Yes, Krob78. the shadow on #8 is what I like about the photo too.
