So the Tricolored just pretends the Snowy is not even there and just lands anyway. Great behavioral and action shot Doc!

I know there are two waders there but it looks like one strange bird. A great moment to capture Ann.

Took me a white to realise there were, actually, two birds there Ann LOL. Wonder who won that battle.

I've amended the scientific name for you though, Egretta garzetta is Little Egret.
