Shame about the approaching tree!!!! But so far I think this is the only shot I managed of this species(so this is for the record).

While at Porpoise Point photographing the progress of the Wilson's Plovers I spotted the Snowy Egrets doing a mating dance. Here is a series of three that I took during the performance.

This Snowy Egret should get a good rating for this landing.

Adult Snowy Egret

This Snowy Egret was one of many birds that gave me the oportunity to photograph them on what was a perfect day.

White subjects: they may be the bane of most photographers. The most valuable tool for white subject will be the meter in your camera. But, with white subjects the camera is calibrated to render all tones to a mid-tone of 18% gray. If the meter is the sole source for exposure then the whites...

Behind me was the Pacific surf, pounding on the rocky California coast; in front of me was this small quiet pond, with a Snowy Egret intent on finding a mid-morning snack beneath the algal scum.

The Snowy, his shadow & his reflection. Front of his legs are black, the backs are yellow -- immature feature.

Hurricane Ike destroyed everything that once stood on the Texas City Dike, including the road. However it is possible to walk out on to it and take pictures (at least I did)
