Translucent Egret - Photograph

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)
This is a photograph I took recently at Southport Beach in Fairfield, CT.

I didn't realize it until I loaded this photograph to my computer, but the lighting was such that this Little Egret looked almost translucent. I was stunned by the beauty of this shot.

This photograph is my entry for the following:

    Isn't it wonderful when these white birds get under a bright sun! Translucent is a great, descriptive word - they turn almost blue!

    I've always thought Egrets were ethereally beautiful, and yours is fantastically so!
