Another Snowy Egret? You bet! I love photographing them and watching them catch those tiny little fishes.
Great capture! Great timing! I got close to an Egret catching crayfish, but was not able to get the photo. You did well with this capture.
Hey John!
What can I say? Jaw-dropping! Great Shot.
I need to get a telescopic lens for my rebel — so I can take these kind of shots.
(my little canon powershot has a digital zoom, but you lose clarity — as in the great horned owl chicks)
Occasionally we get a stray egret in our valley. Two years ago there was a lovely pair on the “creek”
This year there is a heron rookery – they made six or seven nests — and then a great horned owl moved into one of them. Interesting to see baby herons and baby owls in the same group of trees.
Great capture with the egret agape. Very clear!
Great photo! That’s a little fish in its mouth? Wow it’s tiny. LOL Thanks for stopping by my WW and leaving a comment
I love the clarity of your pictures and I love watching birds though I’ve never tried to photograph them. Thanks for stopping by.
That is an amazing shot. Not only is the bird beautiful, but it’s mid-bite. That is so cool. Poor fish, but cool picture.
Happy WW from Sara @ the Mostly Wordless Wednesday H.Q.!
Great job and great capture with the little eel in its mouth!
John,
Awesome shot..is that a tiny fish in its mouth or remnant of part of a fish? very cool!

John…what happens when you get 400 comments?

Someone needs to tell him not to talk with his mouth open. LOL Very nice shot. Happy Wordless Wednesday.
Best shot of the Snowy Egret I have ever seen. I have to show this to my birding pal! So cool!
Hey John,
I’ve been meaning to get here to say we will miss you at the bird festival.
But the next time you and your wife are back home in Erie, PA please let Michele and me know. We would love to hook up with you. Have a great weekend.
