Thank you; Great Egrets can be difficult to get close to as they are usually alone and pick a favourite spot away from disturbance.
These are such graceful birds. I've seen a few great egrets around, and there are some of these little egrets further along the estuary from me... I've always wanted a good picture! Lovely spotting :)
