It’s probably wishful thinking, yet everything is pushing spring.
The swamps are filling with active Great Egrets, the temperatures are actually close to being hot. Blue sky and sun, just look below.

I captured this Egret as the morning sun became full over the swamp and birds were starting the days nesting.
Another photo best viewed large.
You captured a beautiful sight! And you’re right, viewing the pict large is best. It shows much more detail of this beautiful Egret.
Thank you. The shot turned out so much better than I had thought it would. Early light can be tricky. Thanks for stopping by, please dig around there’s plenty more like this here.
This Egret was flying high .!
Nesting time LOL. The swamps are busy.
Nice! Send some our way, snow and – 18 C today 😟
I saw that. Ellen parents live in northern Maine. Same weather I think. As for the Lowcountry, chilly and gloomy again. However I could wear shorts and get away with it.
