Canon10D 600IS 4.0 Lens at 5.6 1/1600 ISO 400 Manual Metering Incident at -1. Winberley Head, Tripod. Flash did not fire. USM, Levels. 20% Cropped. Hans Suter Park, Corpus Christi, Texas.

The white morph of the reddish egret is a very handsome bird, his/her plumage is of a pristine white and dances very well in pursue of the mullets at the bay. I was able to recover some hot spots using the technique taught by Greg in his last newsletter. I sincerely hope you guys/gals enjoy. All comments are welcome.

The white morphs are so beautiful, great catch with meal in tow! I like the way it's standing in the water.

Spectacular! I didn't expect the fish based on the title; that was an added bonus.

Have never seen one of these and am rather impressed with this fine shot. I would feel lucky to see one of these with a fish. I like the overall exposure & might sharpen slightly more.

Lovely shot, Juan. I've never seen one of these in person. If I'm lucky, I'll get one at De Soto this winter or next spring.
