xalo Posted May 22, 2014 Share #2 Posted May 22, 2014 Well timed! Impressive bird and photo, the plowing wings show force and grace at once. You must have been happy getting this take! Cheers, Alexander Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildlightphoto Posted May 22, 2014 Share #4 Posted May 22, 2014 This bird is actually a Great Egret, somewhat larger than the Snowy Egret. The Snowy Egret can be identified by its black bill and legs along with yellow feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Snowy Egret can be identified by its black bill and legs along with yellow feet. Very much appreciated I'm an amateur when it comes to knowing the difference.

fotografr Posted May 22, 2014 Share #6 Posted May 22, 2014 Very nice shot, Hank. Until seeing this, I had not known these birds had two layers of feathers on the wings. Fascinating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Taylor Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted May 23, 2014 Thanks guys, normally we are not in a position in shooting from a higher level on these birds which as Brent pointed out revealed his two layers of feathers as he spread his wings.
