Target Acquired
Spotted this Great Egret at the arboretum this weekend. We decided to take a short trip for a change of scenery and it was a perfect sunny, winter's afternoon. And actually the first weekend of winter, so our timing could not have been better.
This Egret kept to the other side of the lake, hunting in the overgrown, marshy area making it difficult to get any clear shots. At one point it flew way to the other end of the lake but was finally out in the open.
Alas, it was also jut a tad bit too far away but I couldn't resist trying to get some shots. As they say, target acquired for both the Egret and me.
