photoartflightGreat Egret – Breeding Plumage
This Great Egret was at the very top of a tree that was loaded below with other nests of various types of birds. It really stood out against the bright blue sky. Photographed @ 600mm with a Tamron 150-600mm lens.

Wow. That breeding plumage and the brilliant blue sky make an unbeatable combination. Wonderful photos, Reed.
Thanks Mike! It was a fun photo trip! 9 days of Bird and Landscape photography! Now I just have to work on all the files!!!
Stunning display! The green near its beak is a surprise.
Thanks Eliza! That green was from their breeding plumage! But these were even more bright green than usual!
