The Great Egret, a sleek white beauty, is frequently seen throughout southern marsh habitats, in an eager search of his daily provision. These birds are amazing creatures that are fascinating to watch, especially as they hunt for the day's meals. This egret was strolling through a boggy area, thick with bamboo and reeds, in search of his supper. Shallow waters are filled with aquatic, crawling, and flying things that look pretty appetizing to an egret. For this hunt, lightning-fast reflexes were rewarded with a delectable morsel. Maybe not delectable to us but it certainly was to him!
