    The little fellow in the back is a green heron. The fellow in front looks like a tri colored heron though I have never seen one myself.

    Nice shots Lynma

    Hey Lynn,

    Good shots. Egrets and herons are in the same family so technically the pic of the Great Blue Heron could be called an egret. :D

    The second picture is a Little Blue Heron with a Green Heron in the back.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
