[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
At the same place where I saw the African Jacana (yesterday's posting) I spotted this little egret. Really a superspot in the neighbourhood of Badala park. I saw here more than 20 little egret and also a lot of Jacana, Cormorants and Stilts.
Hope you like this colorful shot.

Zeno,

Well seen and well done, very well captured, I have the same birds here and find them difficult to approch, they take flight and All I get is blurry butt photos.

This picture is a beauty Zeno, the jacana with the white lotus, it is simply fantastic. Superb composition with the green leaves on the water, perfectly sharp and beautiful light. What more to askT Thank you!

Hello Zeno
This is just superb..You could have so easily overexposed here with the whites of the egret and the glorious lillys....The sharpness is just spot on..the pov you have has given a great BG with the pads slowly moving to a blur.
Tfs and best Regards

Hallo Zeno,

Deze reiger staat er mooi op met een goede doortekening in zijn witte verenpracht.
Alleen een beetje centraal maar maakt in dit geval niet uit.
