home to roost?

Angelo

I can't imagine why these beautiful egrets find their way to the dry, boring desert but thank goodness for all the fake lakes, rivers and waterfalls Palm Springs golf courses offer them.

All comments and critiques welcomed. Thanks for looking.

Hey Angelo
I see you got yourself some fancy PS type Egrets.
Are they the high priced ones ??

Hell yes they are... afterall that's a $2,000,000 roof they're pooping on.

Nice shots Angelo, I especially like the reflection shot.

Dee

Some neat images!
I had to really laugh at all the egrets on the tile roof. I've seen egrets in a tree, but not on a roof top like that!

Very nice photos, including the BIF with pretty reflections!

Nice shots, Angelo. I'm diggin' that roof in the first one. Ratehr unusual tile. Well done.

Thanks Steve, I was pleased with that one also. Too bad I don't have massive machine gun glass for a closer shot.

Angelo,
You did a nice job with these. In my limited experience shooting these birds, it has been easy to blow them out. You managed to preserve some great detail even in flight.

Thanks Dee I felt compelled to find a visual response to the many treestump photos in the thread (right Harry?)

Thanks Mike. A real compliment coming from one of our resident masters! That a fairly common clay roof tile used throughout southern CA (and most of the southwest). Thanks for looking.

Good captures Angelo (or should I say Birdman Angelo) , especially the first one.
