Snow Egret

We visited Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge near Dover, Delaware last week, primarily to see and photograph many hundreds of great white and snowy egrets. They usually gather near marsh, wetland or shallow waters for catching small fish, frogs, etc.

  Thank you for stopping by my blog. It was quite a different sight to see so many egrets up on the tree resting after their morning feeds in the shallow waters.
