Just like Ramon's image but without the camo !!! We just lucked out with the egrets :) From last years President's Day IPT !!! Sanibel Pier !

Comments welcome and much appreciated

Nice...Now I defiantly know that you have them trained...:eek::D:cool:

[Ramon M. Casares]

great, I wish Egret were like that here... but well.. I guess I'll have to keep camouflaging myself or either go there and pay you guys a visit :)

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I remember that moment. You can tell that it is not too hard to get close to these birds when you continue to check the images while a bird walks 5 feet in front of you. :)

[Alfred Forns]

They do get close Axel !! I've had some hop over my legs !!

[Fabs Forns]

I should mention that the one on the left, front row, is our own Axel :)

Well done, dear husband!

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Congrats on a great captured moment. Wonderful to see the egrets cooperating and also to see Axel!!!!! Thanks for sharing this Alfred !!!

I think it's incredible that the birds are so well acclimated to having you around. It's taken me an entire year to get the local ducks and geese to not run when they see me coming.

:eek::eek::eek::eek: Hey guys, I would love to see you trying to photograph an egret in Spain :p

[Sven Bernert]

Hey guys, I would love to see you trying to photograph an egret in Spain :p

.. or in Germany :D I mean it is doable, you just need an 800 mm lens and stacked converters (outside the zoo that is .. :p)

For Europeans this in one amazing picture ... thanks for sharing :)
