Four white egrets with black beaks and yellow lores stand in the shallow water along a sandy beach. They are all looking the same direction out over the water to the left.

I actually went out to get a #BirdoftheDay photo when it was #wadingbirds day. I never got a chance to upload it. So, here it is for #FeatheredFridays. 'Four snowy egrets standing in the shallows'. Shortly after this photo, they started chasing a cormorant who was fishing nearby. Always fun.

I have the unsteadiest hands on the planet. I’m pretty sure this barn swallow is laughing at me. #featheredfridays #birds #barnswallow

Male Eastern Bluebird feeding babies. I took this photo several years ago when I had Eastern Bluebirds nesting year around in my back yard. I sure do miss them now. #FeatheredFridays #birds #bird #Bluebird #BirdPhotography

#featheredfridays the elusive yellow-crowned night heron. Made a stop at the pond at the end of summer!

Large brown and white raptor flies past with wings outstretched and face in profile. Blurry strip of mostly brown vegetation, sandwiched between water and sky, form the backdrop to this awesome bird.
