    Great shots, Ric, all of them! thumb.gif

    I see you slipped in a non-butt shot there on #4. What's up with that? rolleyes1.gif

    Nice set Ric. The first one is by far the best, but I like I you captured the fish prey in the third one. The second bif is really nice as well. I still haven't gotten a good bif of any friggin' egret or heron.

    you're right the only time I could go was mid-day....we drove 150 miles to see family.... soooo I acually had to spend some time with them before I felt it was ok to leave.

    it was pretty cool..& the strip of road just over the Savanna-Sabula bridge have a ton of Egrets but there is nowhere to pull over & too busy to stop in the road.ne_nau.gif
