Nice. They look so much like Little Egrets.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

Oh no, I'm sure you're right that it's a Snowy. They just look like our Littles. In fact just the Australian Littles as those of other parts of the world have greyish green lores instead of the yellow of Snowies and our Littles.

It was a Snowy, at least by North American standards. I just meant that I really do have problems with IDs.Way too many subtle differences.

Nice shot, sogs. I know nothing about them and I never see then around here. I'll have to do some reading on them.

Thank you very much. They are beautiful and have that distinguished face. They are strictly a northern duck. I'm lucky that they winter here every year.


Time waits for no one!

Thanks Mike. The baby Anhingas sure are funky looking.:-D

Those Egrets went on a steal a meal alert when the Great Blue Heron started regurgitating a fish.:-P

Junior is sure to choke on that. Nice capture!

A grebe and a red-winged blackbird that I spotted yesterday morning at Tom Bennett Park in Bradenton.

Two excellent captures!
