Anne, very cool capture of these two in action! Even though egrets are usually smaller, they seem to be much more aggressive than herons. NICE JOB! #3979091

Absolutely tremendous! I often see Herons, but they always fly off if I as much as look in their direction. I cannot immagine how you managed this shot!
