A variety of birds were spread along the far side of the pond and many of the Great Egrets were just standing around while American Avocet and American White Pelicans came and went. This pair seemed to be on the lookout for something.

One did fly in and join the group. I suspect those posts are the remnants of a duck blind.

The Great Egret made the typical graceful landing and the others paid no attention.

Beautiful habitat shots, Ellen! I love seeing shiny or mirror water in the distance with a bird (hopefully many) standing and reflecting. These are awesome! 🙂
Thanks, Donna! Glad that you liked them. I’ll take habitat when we can’t get closer 😁
