Description
Beautiful Snowy Performance by Debra Martz I could not believe what I was seeing on this particular morning. I've watched Snowy Egrets "fish" for many years. They position themselves in an area and watch the water closely before probing for a fish as they see it go by them. But on this morning, several Snowies were leaving the peninsula and half running, half dragging their feet while stirring up some fish and then would nab on the go! It was a most spectacular sight to witness!

Great capture of the egret's foot race across the water, Debra! The composition with flying drops and splash trail illustrates the chaos of take off!

What a great capture Deb! It is almost like they have developed into a hover craft just to stir up lunch! Great catch!

Thank you! I had not seen them use those slippers in this manner before this day!
