I shot this guy at Gatorland in Florida. He didn't feel a thing.

    Welcome to Dgrin Raff!clap.gif

    Pretty good exposure. Those white birds can really be a pain. Got any more? We'd love to see them.

    Even though they are called White Herons, that bird is actually a great egret. The whites a bit hot but not a bad shot at all.

    Nice egret shot. Welcome to Dgrin, Raff. Looking forward to seeing more shots from you. Keep those egret shots warm...Egret Fest is only months away. :uhoh :D

    Gatorland ROCKS!!! One of my favorite places to shoot birds. If only they would enclose the place and install some AC so we can be comfortable and shoot during the summer months. Laughing.gif

    Welcome
    I agree with the others. Nicely captured, great exposure. You're not scared of highlights, and that's always a good thing.

    Welcome.

    Welcome to Dgrin and the Nature and Wildlife Forum. You're off to a good start. You shoot a Nikon and your first pic post is an egret. thumb.gif
