Great Egret

Well I finally came across one wading out in a large pond I drove past on my way home from work last night. I pulled my pickup over along the road and began shooting like a mad man. I tried about 6 or 7 slightly different angles hoping one would turn out decent. The Egret was further out in the pond than I would have liked and the light was low, so the images turned out a bit grainy and most of them were pretty poor. But this angle turn out fair and would have been spectacular if there would have been a little more light and the Egret a little closer. The surrounding colors play well with the white plumage of this magnificent bird. Not a bad picture, but I'm determined to get a better one.

Song Sparrow


While I saw several Song Sparrows last Saturday at the Garden, it was hard to get a picture of them as they were either hidden within some leaves or branches or moving around too much. I did manage to get a few of this one. The top image provides a good view of its back and tail, while the bottom image provides a good view of its breast and face.
