Little Egret, Big Moment

We sat in a bird hide at Cley Nature Reserve in the depths of a bleak winter’s day. Sub zero temperatures, very little light, nothing much happening. Ironically, very enjoyable. Then the sun broke through and a little egret wandered across. I held my breath and took some photographs. The egret was oblivious to our presence, although I felt I could have reached out and touched it.
