Click and Clack the Snowy Egrets

Got back out to our growing Egret population a few miles from my home. Love shooting these guys against the lush greens surrounding the lake. Thanks for looking.

Harsh light, and a bit too "neon" background (IMO), but I love the dual head-on stares, the interaction, and the wispy breeding plumes.

Yeah, these were the first shots so the sun was still high... incredibly the background is that color - no sat or vibrancy added to it at all.
