Egret Of The Evening

Snowy Egret using his foot to stir up fish so he can grab them for his dinner.

Snowy Egret: love dem birds!

Skimmer using lower beak to catch dinner

An earlier, just slightly, shot of a "late leaving" Ibis. He was fixing to leave at this point.

More net casting. He has a piece of the rope in his teeth, I have seen others do this. It is harder for me to photograph than the birds, smile.

Usually the people doing it are not as accessable, or are shy. He was very friendly. If he is there again sometime, I will use a different lens to see how that works. I was using the 70-200. I was hoping to catch birds and him with the same lens. Don't know how effective it was for either, smile.

Casting the fish net "on the waters". He is catching small minnow looking fish to use for bait for his pole and hook with which he catches "dinner".

I think it is all about the food for everyone!

Regular evening Ibis flight!

Every evening they appear to go the same place in flocks. However which place they fly over varies. They have been a project om mine along with the Skimmer. This is the best so far, it seems to help that there is land in the photo.

Same shot in black and white!
