Da hast du ja einen schönen Reiher entdeckt auf deiner Runde lieber Keith,das ist toll,dass du einen selteren Vogel gesehen hast und auch ein sehr schönes Bild davon machen konntest,da hebt er sich auch sehr schön vom Grün ab,das ist eben das Schöne von einer Runde,wenn man etwas entdeckt,mit dem man nie gerechnet hätte lieber Keith :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Abend,liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you so much for these well thought out and generous comments Güni.......I'm pleased you like this one. It was a great surprise to see it and get a photo.

Have a pleasant evening my friend.........best wishes, Keith.

Nice find Keith, can be seen quite often over Farlington Marshes.

Cheers Alby.......much appreciated. I haven't been there for ages!

it came out sharp i think

beautiful

Thank you so much Annemarie.......glad you think so!

Happy evening

I bet you have no Egrets about taking this shot!! Even viewed large it is still sharp, great composition too

A 'record shot' -well I suppose practically all natural history shots can be called that :) -To me, just a cracking capture of this rare to me Egret. Well done

Cheers. Herb

An egret...what a find or what a meeting, Keith!
This beautiful candid bird seems to enjoy being photographed by you, standing out beautifully in the green! Great capture and shot!

A mesmerizing profile and a great capture, Keith!
I invite you for group:

Noch nie gesehen ...

Well captured Keith I haven't seen one you can sometimes see little Egrets a birder I know says 25 years ago seeing one would have been a major event. Have you tried cropping it I have zoomed in it would stand cropping

Excellent shot!

Nice capture, we see them very often in the area where I live, but I never had my cam with me, when I saw them.
