Description
Riding along the Santa Ana River path yesterday was a feast for my eyes. I no sooner started out, and stopped cold. There must have been a hundred egrets, in groups (flocks, cliques, herds, gatherings???? I'm sure there's a very specific word there somewhere!!), alone, in pairs. This one was by herself, and oh my, isn't she gorgeous (yeah, I know, it's usually the male bird that's the hot one, but I'm giving equal time here!!) Not only that, she doubles our pleasure with her reflection!!

Geese fly in gaggles. Egrets have only egregious to share with lawyers.
Excellent shot
Very sleek and designed for speed. Beautiful capture, once again.
Love the reflection and compo, great clean graphic quality to this image!
nice shot. i think tallpindo is correct, or maybe it could be a cabal of egrets...?
Superb!

Oh my. Wonderful capture!
Hey, this bird is skinny dippin!!!! Cool Shot Girlie!!
Stunning capture Marilyn!!
a simple poem with real complexities inside...just an egret on water, the water pure and sheen-like, and the reflection almost a watercolor painting below it, all captured with real simplicity. But there are subtleties, very visible full-size: The touches of violet in the upper portion & quietly painting the lower portion, the incandescent light on the egret's back, the tiny 'droplets' of reflection of the egret's head, etc. And the water, full-size, has the feel of a sheet of light. Beautiful shot. A poem.
Wonderful capture and reflection, Excellent well done..
Absolutely no regrets over this abundance of egrets, I take it! Everything marvelous, especially the colors and sharp undulating reflections in the water, Marilyn!
very elegant indeed
Boy oh boy I am jealous. I have tried a hundered times to get a good picture of a egret and everytime I get within a 100 feet those darn birds fly off. This is really a great capture and I love the reflection. Very nice
