Last week I was walking through de waterretention area in Oudesluis in the Netherlands. A great egret was strutting majestically through the water. It gave me every opportunity to photograph it. #birds #birdsphotograpy #birdsofmastodon #birdsofpixelfed #egret #greategret #fotografie #photography #natuur #nature
Great Egret grips an armored catfish (pleco) at the edge of Brays Bayou 🪶 The invasive fish hangs from its bill while an American Coot rests nearby and a Tricolored Heron stands on a log behind them. #Birds #GreatEgret #AmericanCoot #TricoloredHeron #UrbanWildlife #InvasiveSpecies

A #GreatEgret comes in low with legs down, and the dark water stays calm in #HulaNatureReserve.
One landing, a clean mirror, and a single #WaterReflection that seals the scene.
