Snowy Egret - Huntington Beach, California, USA
EOS 10D, 600mm, 1.4x, 1/500, f/8, ISO 200 I had pretty much stopped even pointing the camera at Snowy Egrets well over a year ago after having thousands of images and thinking I had seen just about everything this bird has to offer. Today while shooting some shorebirds, this Snowy decided to do some fishing in front of me. I took this shot as he turned away from me and went into the water because I thought it was really cool that you can see both of his eyes from the underside. This shows clearly why an Egret can appear to be looking straight ahead and then get a fish in one swift motion since they can see straight down while their head is level. E.J.
