  • The snowy egret is one of the New World's most widespread egrets, found pretty much everywhere from Southern Canada to Argentina where it is often found along just about any kind of water source, pond, lake, ocean or river where it can find food. With its distinctive bright yellow feet and lores (area in front of the eyes), white plumage and long thin necks this beautiful water bird is often curious and not terribly shy around people. This one was photographed by a lake in Southern Hidalgo County near Weslaco, Texas.

  • A close-up of a snowy egret in Punta Rassa, Florida. This little shorebird had to be gradually crept up upon to get this shot. Eventually, it was so close that was literally inches from my leg, making my zoom lens useless!
