…morning light is magic…

Snowy Egret Pose

This Snowy Egret was hanging out during my last trip to Bolivar Flats.  Another example of early morning light on a white bird.  His plumage gets me in the mood for the upcoming activity at High Island’s rookery.  Can’t wait.

    Sweet light. I like this one better than your earlier post from the same day. It seems to have more separation from the background than that one.

    Thanks Doug. I like the other one better myself, at least full size on my computer. It’s got more of an artistic feel to it with the colors and texture of the background.
