A two-fer of Snowy Egrets

Flipping through some old pics and I came across this series from back in May that I never shared any images from. I was actually at this spot to take pictures of my ballet princess but admit I was a bit distracted by these white ones. Thankfully my daughter granted me a few minutes leave to grab my big lens and snap off a few of them.

During the summer these birds are pretty common in Colorado but they also are skittish so I don’t normally get captures of them. On this day, a half dozen of them were hanging out on a pond in Adams County, Colorado. They will spend their winters in Mexico.
