I thought that you might have captured a photo of an egret out of range. Having double checked, I realized that it has only been spotted on the east coast. (It is not really supposed to be in the Americas.)

No, I managed to only get a few shots before he saw me and flew away.

Tom, do you have this from any other angles. I am especially interesting in the front of the neck and the legs. thanks!
