Ruffles

Another image from the archives - it's quite a difference when a bird, like this Great Egret, goes from smooth feathers to a very ruffled appearance as in this image. This Great Egret was hunting with little success at the edge of this marsh when it decided to fluff up a bit. I had to laugh a bit at the difference it made!
