I am always fascinated with this water bird, the Snowy Egret.
It is usually easy to spot them at the Bolsa Chica Wetlands (Ecological Reserve) along the coastal region of Southern California.
This guy produced some great reflections and I want to share several of my shots of this fascinating bird.

He was very busy rummaging around looking for something good to eat.

"And, I'm out of here!"

She is so pretty! Just posing for you! I have been meaning to visit Bolsa Chica, but its just quite a ways from us.
Great photos! What kind of lens did you use to capture such clear reflection of a white egret?
My favorite is the second one from the bottom...Thanks for sharing
Such beautiful birds, but what really makes the photos are the reflections. Nice job!

Quite beautiful shots of this lovely bird! The first is my favorite but they are all terrific captures.
I love the Egrets, they are such pretty birds. And your reflections are just as beautiful as the bird itself.
So beautiful and great reflections! The last one is really wonderful with the white against the blue:-)
Wish you a nice weekend! Hug from Norway.
Wow beautiful reflections!
Nice series Carolyn. I think the reflections are more "real" than the real bird. Tough shots with the wide exposure range.
This is a beautiful series of shots of a gorgeous bird. I've never had luck getting decent shots of any birds, but I'm working on it! Kathy
Great series of reflections!
Beautiful shots of a beautiful bird. They look like twins! I have taken photos of a snowy egret at Bombay Hook Wildlife Refuge, but nothing this stunning!
Really nice pics.
The last picture would be my pick!
I love his expression when he thinks he sees something!
the entire series of photos are wonderful
Wonderful egret captures with beautiful reflections! If it wasn't raining today, I'd be tempted to head out to the wetlands with my camera (or the pier ... loved the shot of the seagull hoping for a handout in your camera critter post and the kids playing in the sand at Seal Beach too). I'm doing what I can to catch up today after returning from a walk Molly a few minutes ago (taking advantage of the break in the rain).
Hugs and blessings,
Small Reflections
These are absolutely stunning!
