Snowy egret with fluffy feathers wading in a lake in search of food.

Fellow photographers, I want to swap out my backup drives for new ones. I have the drives, but I have no idea how to do this. Tips? Links? I use Lightroom and Photoshop.

That’s a Snowy Egret—a very common and elegant bird in Florida.
They’re often seen walking slowly along boardwalks, shorelines, or shallow water hunting for small fish. This one looks like it’s just casually strolling—very typical behavior.

"A snowy egret stands poised in shallow water, its entire body a clean, luminous white that seems to gather the light around it. The bird’s form is slender and elegant — long black legs planted lightly in the still water, a narrow black bill tapering to a fine point, and a small flare of yellow at the base of the eyes that gives its face a quiet intensity. The water is calm enough to hold a near‑perfect reflection of the egret, a soft mirror image stretching downward like a ghostly twin. Around the bird, the surface shifts from pale ripples to darker patches where wet sand or mud shows through, grounding the scene in a quiet coastal landscape. The egret’s feathers catch the light in subtle layers, from smooth contour feathers along the body to the delicate wisps near the tail. It stands alert but unhurried, as if listening to the water itself. The overall feeling is serene — a moment of stillness held between the bird, its reflection, and the muted shoreline beyond." - Microsoft Copilot

A Snowy Egret perches on a bush, splaying its feathers and plumes. I chose this photo because the head feathers are particularly wild.

For #BirdOfTheDay theme #feathers, here is a Snowy Egret making sure its a snowy day at the Ocean City Welcome Center in New Jersey. #snowyegret #bird #birdphotography.

A Snowy Egret walks in shallow water to the right, seeming unaware or nonplussed by a big, sparkling, breaking wave just behind him on a windy day at the ocean.

Snowy egret in the slough yesterday. They’re basically there every day. They as well as golden pheasant’s & pelicans are my favorite birdies.
#birds, #snowyegret

This #SnowyEgret appears to be giving me the business, “ Hey Bub, what you lookin’ at? You #lookingatme?”

For whatever reason, Snowies seem to bring more attitude that their larger #egret and #heron kin here in #coastalgeorgia

This Snowy stands as evidence 😊

Snowy Egret walking a shoreline as waves come in. All white egret against the blue water and wave background.

@alan6789.bsky.social #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LandMeetsWater any bird on a shoreline or riverbank, water and shoreline must be in capture. Here's a Snowy Egret walking the shoreline #Birds #SnowyEgret

Good morning everyone. Lovely day in the UK. Albeit cold. How many crazy cabriolet drivers will we see with their roofs down today? Haha.

Alan's theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #LandMeetsWater or #TreePerchers

#BrownPelican which I thought ticks both themes.

I got in a 30 minute walk with my friend Scotty on on this week's trip to California, and we were rewarded with this goofy #SnowyEgret gaggle.

A snowy Egret walks elegantly toward the camera. in a shallow blue ocean. His nuptial plume is prominent. A small, foamy wave breaks at the very top of the photo.

A proud #SnowyEgret for Alt #BirdoftheDay #LongNecks. The main theme today is #Corvidae.

Wishing you a beautiful Tuesday!

This #SnowyEgret is feeling absolutely marvelous as it struts in the muck — so #photogenic!

Seriously, though, do you think it could have used a bit less product?

A Snowy Egret with white body feathers, a black beak, yellow-orange eye patch, long black legs, and bright yellow-orange feet. The bird was walking slowly and doing some fishing near several light gray and brown rocks at the edge of a pond with greenish water. Seen at Las Gallinas in San Rafael, California in 2021.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #SteppingOut - birds captured mid-step; the alt is #ColorfulCaptures - a colorful bird or background. Here's a #SnowyEgret in San Rafael, CA for both themes! 💛😍

A little Snowy Egret stands sideways on his left leg and lifts his right foot slightly. His black shadow extends out in front of him on the gray sand. Small white and gray pebbles are scattered in the sand, and at the top is a hint of a gray Atlantic Ocean

Just a little #SnowyEgret and his shadow for #BirdoftheDay #SideView and Alt theme #Yellow

We saw this magnificent creature at the LG Creek perk ponds in Campbell/Los Gatos. About 3 feet tall, did not move away from approaching humans, until they got within 10 feet.

Astonishing.

A lone snowy egret alights on a roof peaks of a Chinese temple. Patiently waiting for the crowds to leave the garden so it can go fishing undisturbed. "After Love" by Sara Teasdale There is no magic any more, We meet as other people do, You work no miracle for me Nor I for you. You were the wind and I the sea - There is no splendor any more, I have grown listless as the pool Beside the shore. But though the pool is safe from storm And from the tide has found surcease, It grows more bitter than the sea, For all its peace.

"You were the wind and I the sea -
There is no splendor any more," Sara Teasdale
