On a great egret roll. I was taking pictures of the pond's owner, a great blue heron, http://www.pbase.com/image/32368807 and the egret showed up. Decide to complete the PAD egret series with a posed full profile. Finally got good lighting.

Here's a 2nd shot of the egret taken a minute or two after this one. Ever see an egret perched on the top of an oak tree? http://www.pbase.com/image/32368808 And, finally, here's the egret and heron together (taken last fall) http://www.pbase.com/image/29531949
