Snowy Egret Aerial Faceoff

Snowy Egrets have attitude. They strike me as irritable grumpy characters. While quite capable of catching their own fish, they spend more time seeing what the ibis are catching and trying to steal it that just fishing on their own. Photographers just love it when they get into a scrap with one another. Usually it's all for show and they go right back to feeding before the next little altercation. These guys rose up for a split second and gave me this image. (Egretta thula)
