OMG What a surprise for me today. This shot was one of those freaky lucky clicks of the camera. This snowy egret just landed there to show off in front of a female. They are rarely in the ocean. I was getting ready for a sunset shot. Lucky for me. Thank you BP and all my wonderful BP friends and family.

So many wonderful images Kathy. I love the wind-blown look of this Great Egret at Sanibel. I also like the effects of the wave behind him. Very nice work in fairly low light conditions. Congratulations on your Finalist award, it comes well deserved. #8912103Jean E. Hildebrant March 26, 2011
This is a stunning shot, Kathy! Love the white feathers blowing in the breeze and the foam of the wave......perfect timing! #9318113Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
