Great Egrets nesting in swamp Palmettos and Live Oaks.
Newly hatched ‘fuzz’ can be seen in their nest, other patches of white birds are in the thickets behind.
I shifted the composition by having the birds right side. It does include the swamp environment for perspective though.
I like your composition, and I like the way the drooping palm fronds echo the shape of the egrets’ plumes.
Thank you very much 🙏☺️. It breaks the rules, but it seemed to fit and make it more interesting, the environment. The only way to show the palm and dark fronds was to shift the birds in the wrong direction. Again thanks !
Beautiful shot! I love images of wildlife showing affection for each other!
It’s usually the the Great Blues and Wood Storks. Egrets typical have a bad attitude.
