LOL...the one of the cattle egret walking atop the turtle shell cracked me up.
ReplyDeleteThat fence/gate under the shade of the big trees is phenomenal.

I'm happy to report that our old egret or perhaps his cousin is back at our neighbor's pond/ swamp nearly with all this tremendous rain. I really like your last photo, it should be on a cover of a book! What a story it could hold!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures.Seems like the one Egret is using the turtles as stepping stones.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and stunning shots of the Egrets. Loved your fence too. It looks a lot like the gate that I posted today. They are so ornate looking.
ReplyDeleteWow; magnificent pictures of Egrets♡♡♡ Great Egret has a really long neck, don't they ;-) I think I can differentiate Egrets from 'Great' and 'Cattle' one p;) Sweet images of them with turtles♡♡♡
