I set up a scene for some macro photography and as usual, Cloudy had to get in there to assist. You can count on Cloudy.
I believe this Egret is the same Egret pictured below. The first shot was taken later in the day and it must have made a pretty gruesome kill since the last time I saw it an hour before. It had blood almost dripping off the end of its beak and it started to dry by the time it walked directly at me and stopped right on the side of my truck. This was the second time this guy almost came running towards my truck because it thought it heard a vole.
All of these head shots are from the same Egret, except for the heron I threw in at the end. I have never been able to get this close to an Egret before!
Shot in Lumut, Perak, Malaysia, with an Olympus E-P3 camera, M. Zuiko 60/2.8 Macro lens and an FL-600R flash.
