    This egret is wild in that it can (and did, right after I snapped the shot) fly away on its own. It is not "wild" in that I took this at Disney World in Orlando. Worked with crop and blur and paintbrush to try to eliminate the crowd.

    Hazel I visited the theme parks over there some years ago and was amazed at the amount of wildlife in the parks which I doubt where even noticed by the crowds of people waiting for rides ect,particularly remember Ospreys fishing on the water ski ride. Think you have done a very good job in difficult circumstance's.

    Considering the location of this egret, I think I may have considered keeping the crowd to help tell the story of where this bird was located.

    Interesting thought, Marina. the one I posted didn't allow for that because of the close shot but I did find another one taken at the same time. Actually has some crowd interest with the young photographer included.

    I have to tell you that I much prefer this image to the last one. This one tells a delightful story.
