Snowy Egret

Snowy Egret, Ashley River

I spotted this Snowy Egret while I was watching the Little Blue Heron Fishing in my last post. That’s the Ashley River at high tide behind him.

He stayed put basking in the sun as I got a bit closer for a clearer look.

He obliged me with poses of both sides and I couldn’t decide which I like better. The full shadow of his beak on his chest in the above image is kind of cool, but seeing his full eye as below is always a winner.
