“Some birds can drag their feet and still get things done. So it is with the Snowy Egret (Egretta Thule), a graceful wader that not only drags its feet but wiggles them, probes with them and rakes them through the mud. Researchers analyzing the Snowy Egret’s many methods of foraging with its feet have concluded that, among North American herons, this finely plumed Hunter boasts an unequaled bag of tricks. Foot stirring, their studies found, requires an egret to swish one foot through the pond mire while keeping the other for balance. Because it’s feet Gleam bright yellow, the sight of one flashing by often startles frogs and fish into motion. Once spied by the Egret, they are promptly skewered on its long, pointed bill.” - excerpt Reader’s Digest Book of North American Birds edited by the Staff of RD, Project Editor James Cassidy.

April 3. Using my friend Nancy's OM-1 in Florida on our recent trip I had a chance to photograph a variety of egrets and herons with the new camera and test the AF-tracking -bird. Great test for me, because I literally had the camera in-hand just the evening before, but the menu was easy to follow and the AF performed wonderfully. Sometimes, I'd literally have just a second or two to react to a bird flying in, and if I had that critical seconds or so to get the lens up, aimed, and on the bird, I usually nailed it. The only times I didn't is when I literally, literally, just pulled up the lens, had the bird in the frame, and fired - really shot gunning. Even then, I'd often get the shot, but sometimes even trying was somewhat ridiculous. Birds that I acquired from a distance I could follow until the birds' wingspans more than filled the frame - as you see here with images that are only slightly cropped. I was IMPRESSED!
