A mixed bag of wading birds was feeding in this pool of water at the side of an old rice field pond.

Most of the birds were concentrating on feeding, but a few Snowy Egrets were busier coming and going.

This one came in for full spread landing.

And almost immediately another took off.

Curses on the mud blob ruining this reflection.

Good for me, the flight path he took crossed some clear water.

Excellent shots, Ellen. You found beautiful light. 🙂
Thanks, Jane. It was one of those periods in time you just wanted to go on and on, good light and lots of bird activity.
How lovely!
Nice reflected shot.

Thanks, Paz, glad that you liked it!
