The sun was bright but it was cold enough for me to have gloves on. Most of the other wading birds around this pond were tucked up into trees. This Great Egret chose to stand in the water, even though he wasn’t fishing. Clearly the birds have a different idea of temperature control than I do.

Well he does look a bit scrunched down to beat the cold 😊. Can you imagine how cold it would be standing in the water?! Brrr….lovely image Ellen
Makes me cold just looking at them! Thanks, Tina.
Very nice, Ellen! It does look chilly.
Thanks, Belinda, it’s odd to see them scrunch down in the water like that. Probably not that cold from your northern perspective, LOL.
