These Windy Days Can Be Tough On A Girl’s Hair!
It has been very windy here the past few days and this snowy egret was really having a tough time keeping her hair in place yesterday in the salt marsh. Of course snowys have been known to fluff up for almost any reason or occasion, it’s just part of their personality. But when you add in a stiff breeze the feathers really start flying!

This bird is so lovely but it looks rather hacked off! Does the wind make it any more difficult for this egret to catch fish?
LikeLike
These snowys are often amusing and entertaining Maggie! I believe it is harder to catch fish on a windy day as the moving water likely makes the fish more difficult to see. I know the alligators do not like the wind at all. But they can be grumpy anyway so… 🙂

No way she is keeping it all in place with the stiff wind out there, but the good news is that they think it makes them appear bigger and that commands authority. 🙂

I don’t think we have snowys here… and I certainly can’t get close enough to catch their bad hair days. So I just get to enjoy every one of your wonderful shots. Thank you!

One can not belive that it´s almost summer here …. The past days, i think the wind come from the arctic region!
