A great egret eating breakfast.

Delores Fenwick Nature Center, Texas.

The ponds are very low, many of the large fish are dead and the ones still alive have barely enough water to survive in some parts. We desperately need rain. On the local news this morning, they were saying we are down 13" from our normal rain amount this year. Wildlife is suffering tremendously.

I'm away from my usual habitat for a few days, but I still managed to find some egrets in *their* natural habitat.

It was dinnertime on the estuary when I rode by tonight, so the shorebirds were wading in low tide sticking their impressive bills in the mud to eat who knows what.

Cattle egrets hanging out with the cattle at my neighbors farm. They feed on ticks and flies and any other insects kicked up by the hooves of the cattle.

Okay, okay, three

They were surprisingly comfortable with us walking right by them. We're always trying to give off unthreatening vibes and it's hit or miss whether the believe us or not.

While out photographing birds one morning, I found this little Snowy Egret doing some feather maintenance. He’s in breeding plumage and the display of white feathers against the dark blue bay water was striking, imo. Love the feisty Snowy’s.

Okay, last hungry baby egret photo, I promise, but here's a parent doing a two-fer. 3/2

Egret aigrettes (those lovely, ghostlike flyaways the great grow for the mating season).

This beautiful Florida resident, the Great Egret (Ardea alba) with wings still outstretched, has just touched down on a wooden pylon at a dock on the bay. They are such graceful birds, especially when in flight and their white feathered wings always remind me of angels.
