Snowy Egret Bad Feather Day

These are from a previous visit years ago to Lake Woodruff NWR in DeLand Florida. The wind picked up some and I liked the ruffled feathers on this Snowy Egret. I was using 100 – 400mm zoom with a 1.4x teleconverter to get a little closer view.

With being housebound, I’m more apt to look like the first photo than the second. 😀

Bad for the egret, good for a photographer seeking something different.

  Yes! That is true! At least it looked a little different than usual!
