Well, RAL...I've never heard of an intermediate egret either. I looked them up on Google, and sure enough, I believe that's what you captured. And this shot is really a beauty, by the way. Excellent photography.

Thanks for your kind words and precious confirmation!

Great shot and thanks for sharing. Don't have such birds in my place.

To think another way....there's always another way.

Terrific flight shot, Rob! It looks like he's been dining on some delicious plant seeds. :-)
