The other day we were out and about in the ACE Basin marshes. I’ve made several comments since how it’s the summer doldrums, things were slow, general mumbling of how we didn’t see much wildlife.

And yet, there were these three almost posing for us. There’s always something to see and photograph.

Below is a Great Egret that was perched high up in the big pines. It’s not the first place you look for a big wading bird.

This tall bare tree is out in a salt marsh. The only thing to land on out there. This Snowy Egret stood there showing off his golden slippers.

Last is a female Anhinga drying off, with her head just laying down her back. An odd position, but she was comfortable, my e even asleep.

I guess it wasn’t that slow after all.
