OK, these birds are without question the most animated "waders" I've ever seen. Most Herons and Egrets will patiently wait for their fish to swim by. Not these guys....they chase them! It can be absolutely HILARIOUS to watch!

Very cool! I really like #3 - how the feathers on the neck are flowing and the wing position - he looks like a roadrunner on water.

All very sharp. Thanks for sharing.

I like how you captured the way they hunt using the wing shadows to catch fish.
