Egret Excitement

I've taken quite a few pictures of various kinds of birds during my time on the Gulf Coast, but I have a new favorite. Can you believe this egret posed for me like this? I do not have any kind of fancy zoom lens attachments... I really was as close to this guy as it appears. It was New Year's Day in a New Orleans city park, and it was quite a photographic thrill. :)

Prints are available in the shop! :)
