“Hey! Look What I Caught!”

This morning a great egret plucked itself a nice fish out of the salt marsh and proceeded to walk right over to me to show off his catch!

That’s a very nice touch! But he hasn’t shared it with you, right? What a pity! 😛

  No sharing for this bird, I would have to catch my own, but he is better at that then me. 😀

Everybody’s got a fish story. Only this guy can’d exaggerate — you’ve got it all on film.

  His story will have to be about quantity rather then quality. He actually did this twice while I was standing there.

  I guess I shouldn’t tell you the egret did this twice while I was standing there, brought the fish right over to me.

  They come too close too often believe it or not. Today I had a spoonbill fly toward and I swear I could have reached out and grabbed his leg as he flew over me. I was quickly choked with too much glass.
  Glad you liked these shots Steve!
