A nice grouping, Peter, and I like the environment as well. It is fun when birds cooperate like this.

With nine egrets, that must have been one extremely productive feeding area, Peter. I’ve never seen more than a couple in proximity with one another.

Well Peter, I smiled when I saw this one. A great congregation of egrets and five ducks. The fishing must have been exceptional.

I lke seeing the birds in a bit of habitat. And the colours are lovely. I like seeing the ripples go in every direction.

Hi Peter, nice environmental and behavioral image. With all those egrets, this reminds me of the local park pond near me that has been so productive. Interesting shot that shows that given the right circumstances the birds will congregate into a small area.

Hi Allen Brooks, Dennis, Glrnys & Allen Sparks
Thank you for the comments. I just walked up to them and sat down; they didn’t care one bit that I was there.
Peter
