Great Egret

[Rick Moran]

This one had caught a fish and a woodstork was chasing it. The stork finally caught up with the egret and he lost his fish.

Interesting, I had no idea wood storks are that aggressive. I like the exposure control and might go for a pano crop.

Ha! We can see a stork in the URC. I would only crop the bottom a bit to get rid of the mud. I like the habitat depicted.

Nice exposure and behavior shot. The recommended pano crop would increase our attention on the bird.
