Reddish Egret Landing

While taking Skimmer photos, this Reddish Egret came in for a landing right in front of me. There were 4 of them that flew in together and this one made the most dramatic landing in decent light.

1/1250 sec @ F4, ISO 400, evaluative metering, -2/3 exposure compensation

Thanks Lyle. He made a nice skidding landing. I was lucky to see them coming in to land.
