Snowy Egrets In A Snit At Quivira National Wildlife Refuge---August 2008

SCROLL DOWN AND CLICK ON PHOTO TO ENLARGE
This sequence of photographs took place over a 15 minute period.
They were taken at Quivira National Wildlife Refuge on August 28, 2008.
I'm not sure what predicated the behavior shown in these photographs.
It certainly would not be a courtship display at this time of year.
At about the eight minute mark, a Great Egret joined the twelve or so Snowy Egrets.
It was almost as though he/she came to settle the kids down.
I hope you enjoy this sequence of pictures.
