A number of Cattle Egrets were nesting around the rookery, including this one that was working on some finishing touches.

Another seemed all settled in on the next palm tree.

Last, one that was taking a break from his hard work, giving me a nice view of his breeding colors.

Nice series, Ellen!
Thanks, Donna!
Beautiful photos!
Thank you, glad that you liked them.
The peachy coloration on this egret is particularly fetching. Nice shots, Ellen.
Peachy is a good description, Mike, and surely potential mates are impressed. Thanks, glad that you liked them.
