This is one of the closest shots I have every gotten of this bird.
This is a crop of a longer shot. I was driving around Lake Ella,
a small park in Tallahassee when I spotted a Great White Egret in
a tree next to the road. As I was getting out I looked down and this
Great Blue was stalking right at the base of the tree. It was
remarkably tolerant of pedestrian traffic aroung the lake,
which allowed this close shot.
