Great Egret gliding up high to a rookery. The trees in this rookery were high, filled with birds. The best path was to come in low then go almost straight up.
There were so many other pairs nesting it was tricky for them to avoid landing in the wrong spot, or a mid-air collision.
Fantastic photo! Such (human) feeling of joy, freedom and expectation looking at this shot 🙂
Wow, greatly appreciated 🙏🙏🙏
Good shot….
Thank you 😀😀
Beautiful how his wings are lighted by the sun.
Just enough sun and a blue sky 😀😀.
Perfect, Ted! They have such a gorgeous wingspan!
In rookeries, most times, they come in low and climb. Maybe less chance of meeting another bird in the air.
