Two Friends
This morning we were watching a snowy egret and a white ibis who were feeding in the marsh.
There was something about the way they moved and interacted with each other that made them seem like a couple of pals out enjoying their day together.
They just got along so well, and cooperated perfectly while remaining united in the common goal of catching a meal.
This went on for about half an hour until the ibis flew off apparently deciding to join a large group of ibis who were fishing in the salt marsh nearby.
The snowy seemed a bit disappointed to be left alone but continued to go about it’s business as life goes on in the marsh.

For some reason today I can not make spaces between the photos. It used to be a problem only when using Firefox and worked OK using IE.
But now starting today, using one version of IE and it will not upload images at all.
Using a different version of IE, images upload but will not make spaces.
The spaces show as being there initially, but then they disappear upon publishing the page. 😦
The only space that is important is the space between the spaces-And those are incredible! Such a great set of photos!
Thanks Molly, I appreciate you looking and commenting! You’re the best!

Beautiful and sweet photos. I’m always amazed at how social animals are enjoying each others company.
It’s true, and they really did seem to be enjoying hanging around with each other.
Was that in fact the case? We can never say for sure but more fun to think of it that way. 🙂
Thanks for looking.
