My Accommodating Friend... (Egretta tricolor)

I was on a boardwalk over a local wetlands (this morning) trying to get low to image this beauty walking in the water below. I was cussing and spitting because my lens wouldn't fit between the slats for a better view. Suddenly this beauty raises up and lands on the railing of the boardwalk not 10 feet from me, right in the morning sun with an also early sunlit cypress stand behind. I chortled, said thank you gorgeous and commenced the photo session. With 800mm I had to back up first.
