Egret Series --
"White Plume Display - two"
Great Egret
at South Venice, FL
Great Egret in breeding plumage with full cape plumes
and green lores. This bird is in the middle of a display ritual
which starts with the neck and head lowered. It then raises up
throwing the head back with a great arch of the neck and a fanning of
the plumes on the back. This is repeated many times and is truly
stunning. Another view is shown in the next image. Provia-F film
at ISO 100 with an 840mm lens at f5.6 and 1/320sec.
Available in all sizes up to 16x20
Edition limit is 30 prints 8x10 and larger.
