My previous understanding: Egrets are white

You expanded my knowledge about egrets.

Thanks!

Thank you RAL. Happy trails.

Thanks for the compliment Mike, always appreciated.
The poisonous Red Tide has briefly subsided.
Some shore birds have returned to hunt again.
Only spotted one Reddish Egret.

Wonderful capture of the Kestrel in flight, Lester! It appears to be hovering. I think this is a male, but I'm not sure.

Prefect flight shot of the drake mallard, Rob!

Thanks sogs.
Yes a hovering male but very little wind so he was having to work at it.
He would sit in a nearby tree watching the field then hover to hope for a prey item.

This vocal marsh sandpiper just flew into the frame, and I didn't have time to increase shutter speed.

The red tide must really be an awful ordeal for everything associated with the ocean shores.:cry:
