This lone Great Egret (Ardea Albus) was ranging around the pond at the Oil and Gas Park in Jennings today. I managed to get in a spot, just behind a tree, that allowed me some camoflauge and a place to steady my shot. He quickly found me, though, and took a couple stares right at me to check for threats.
The fishing wasn't so good, so he soon decided to head to his (seemingly temporary) nesting place in some bushes near the bank.
What surprised me on this shot, was how limber you have to be, to be a Great Egret and keep your feathers straightened.
