Description
The elegant Snowy Egret emerges hesitantly into the open. I played around a bit with this photo, to bring it out in black and white. Photo was taken on a lake in Colorado, in a little alcove, in August of 2016. I have always loved the elegance of herons and egrets, walking or flying.
From Cornell Labs: "Among the most elegant of the herons, the slender Snowy Egret sets off immaculate white plumage with black legs and brilliant yellow feet. Breeding Snowy Egrets grow filmy, curving plumes that once fetched astronomical prices in the fashion industry, endangering the species. Early conservationists rallied to protect egrets by the early twentieth century, and this species is once again a common sight in shallow coastal wetlands."
