Field Notes

Description:

A gorgeous egret with a yellow bill, green skin around the eye and leading to the beak, black legs, and white feathers.

Notes:

Lifer! I erased the background of this egret as this was a wild bird taken in the Magic Kingdom in Florida. The bird, which had unfortunately become dependent on people to be fed, was pictured with many people in the background. I hope this is okay. Photo taken by my father—I had him take one because my camera was not working well.
