    Dip Feeding Snowy Egrets

    Hi All,

    Sorry I haven't been around much, but I'm moderating a bird forum on another site, so my posting time is pretty well consumed over there. Thought I'd at least stop by and say "Hi" and post a few recent shots. Here's a series I did a couple weeks back of some dip feeding Snowy Egrets - Enjoy!

    is that the actual fish tail you can see in the water, in front of the beak, in the first photo? phenomenal!

    Yup - The fish try and get away...usually to no avail.

    Wonderful series, Bob!

    It looks like there was quite a large school of fish by the looks of #3 and #4. I imagine a lot of other folks got in on the action!
