Little Egret (Egretta garzetta)

Taken a couple of weeks back, on an early summer holiday to sunny Mallorca and very hot and sunny it turned out to be!
Little Egret, with a little colour round its bill, which believe indicates breeding....didn't seem to many Egrets / Herons around compared to previous years holiday, though this trip was a few weeks earlier...
Very warm and sunny, though a little breeze occasionally which ruffled a few feathers - Mike

Isn't he beautiful!

A super picture you've taken of him Mike - I love the breeze ruffling his feathers too.
