Just a quick post today of a white morph Reddish Egret hunting. I came across this file the other day while going through some of my older images.<\/p>\n

\"WhiteWhite morph Reddish Egret hunting – Nikon D200, handheld, f8, 1\/500, ISO 200, Nikkor 80-400mm VR at 400mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

While I lived in Florida I simply adored being able to photograph Reddish Egrets, they can be graceful or goofy looking, they twirl, dash and dance.<\/p>\n

This bird; in nonbreeding plumage, was hunting along the shore of the Gulf of Mexico and gave me quite a show.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
