I sure as hell can't begin to approach Dun or Jim B's talents, but being in the right place at the right time gave me a really fun and awesome
opportunity. Watched this magnificent creature for some time just taking it in and wondering how often we miss these opportunities. Wow.

Great photos, Ev. Where was the Great Egret hanging out? Not to worry, promise I won't sell tickets!

Thanks, Jim. Spotted it and ran home for my camera and just started shooting. LOL BTW, what are they likely eating there? Polywags? He/she was snapping
something up with great gusto. I had no idea how quick they are when catching something either. Like a flash!

That looks like perennial aquatic habitat, so there are likely some fishes in there. There could also be frogs -- herons will eat either. And other squirmy
things...

Love the water lilies...perfect setting for a stunningly beautiful bird.

It is. I loved the varied colors and shapes of greens and the reflections in the water. A really rich background which probably could have made a picture all
by itself, too.

I'm guessing that the location was in the lily pond on Eastern Ave across from the old Eastern Avenue School.
That looks like the same Great Egret that's been hanging around our dock. http://goodmorninggloucester.wordpress.com/2008/07/02/great-heron-at-the-dock/ |

I'll bet it's the same one, too, unless there are several around. ?? That where it was, Joe.

Thanks all. When nature and great luck hand you such a treasure, it's hard not to get something good from it. Just made me glad for once I was in the right
place at the right time. Would have hated to miss this amazing creature.
