The adult Little Egret is 55–65 cm long with an 88–106 cm wingspan. It weighs 350–550 grams. Its plumage is all white. It has long black legs with yellow feet and a slim black bill. In the breeding season, the adult has two long nape plumes and gauzy plumes on the back and breast. The bare skin between the bill and eyes becomes red or blue. Juveniles are similar to non-breeding adults but have duller legs and feet. The subspecies garzetta has yellow feet and a bare patch of grey-green skin between the bill and eyes, whereas nigripes has yellow skin between the bill and eye and blackish feet.

Little Egrets are mostly silent but make various croaking and bubbling calls at their breeding colonies and produce a harsh alarm call when disturbed.

Hola Vicma,
Outstanding shot of this great looking Little Egret and it stands out well against the BG. Superb light and exposure handling and I like this alert pose. Immaculate sharpness and details with perfect DOF and POV. Very expertly done. Kudos.

Spectacular capture of an Egret, Vicma.
The bluish colour of the picture really grabs my attention.
The image is so sharp I can see the bird's head forming a shadow on its back.
Was it some special kind of light that caused this effect or did you modify the original at editing stage?
Regards.
Ram

Buen trabajo amigo,

Buena pose en actitud pesquera del ave y preciso enfoque a la cabeza. Bien captadas esas alas inmaculadas, un poco quemadas pero que te he de decir yo ! Bonito contraste y juego de colores ave-fondo. Te va enlace del blog del CCCP, donde he montado una exposición de insectos en una modesta sala de un barrio de lleida. Lo mejor cuando la visitan niños pequeños :-)

Hello Victor,

The beautiful white bird stands out so well on the different hues of blue!
Perfect details in the plumage, and I notice the shadow of the bird's head making a surprising element...
A fine composition with great 3D effect!

Greetings,

Namaste,

The atmosphere is amazing here, the composition is top class; but I feel there is slight blue cast.

Your Digiscope rocks :-)
