Thanks a lot, Roeli. I am glad to be here. The bird was wearing its very best feathers for the photo shoot. ;-)

Wouah ! i never saw this kind of amazing bird !

According to Wikipedia, the very similar Egretta garzetta breeds in southwest France, but mainly in southeast Europe and the north shore of the Black Sea. Maybe you could see them there. You might need a little boat. I was in my kayak when I took this photo.

Thank you, my friends for your kind comments. Sorry, Alicja-Kalina & Dan R. Mills for the very late response. :-(
