A snowy egret going after an itch instead of a fish on North Beach @ Ft De Soto. I think it was 2006 this beach was named best beach in the US.

Very nice capture of a green heron, Archie! The bg is just right, I can tell what things are but they're blurred enough as to not distract.

You're on a roll, Archie. That's one nice portrait.

Thank you, K9! Appreciate your comments.

Did you get any shots of snowy egrets? At a distance or if you aren't paying close attention, a white morph can be mistaken for a snowy. When I first saw this one in the water, I couldn't see its legs, just it's bill and I had to look really close for the pinkish color. When I saw that I was pretty sure it was one and when it came out of the water, I didn't see any yellow feet, so I was positive at that point. Check your pics real close, it's possible you captured it and didn't realize it. if you didn't I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't see it the week before so I guess I got lucky that it showed up that day. Those birds are like fish, here one day and gone the next.

I did see some snowys but they weren't Reddish- I took some photos of them definitely snowys. I was with a couple of other photographers much of the time that know that white morph so I'm pretty sure I didn't see it. We did see a large mixed group our last morning but none of us saw the white morph. We all looked pretty closely.

Glad you got to see him, maybe I'll find him next time!!

Super color, it's just right, it looks very natural. The green is just awesome! Good job.

Thank you, K9, appreciate it.
