birdshooter > This Snowy Egret is fishing in Shovler Pond in Brazoria National Wildlife Refuge.
birdshooter > This Great Egret paid no attention to me as I approached with camera and lens. He was totally concentrated on his next catch. Photo taken in Brazos Bend State Park.
birdshooter > The Cattle Egret is often seen along the highway near grazing cows. The cattle stirs up insects and small amphibians as they walk and the egrets are nearby ready to pounce on the prey. They are not impressive color wize except during the breeding season. This guy is in display at his nest on Heron Island at H.A.S. High Island sanctuary.
birdshooter > This Whooping Crane is about to devour its favorite meal, a Blue Crab. The blue crabs are why the Whooping Cranes come to Aransas NWR every fall. This photo was taken from the boat "Skimmer" Rockport Adventures. It is an excellent way to see the Whoopers up close. I highly recommended it.
birdshooter > Many egrets, herons, cormorants and spoonbills nest on the Houston Audubon Society sanctuary on Heron Island in High Island, TX. This Roseate Spoonbill is tending to her three chicks.
birdshooter > This Great Blue Heron was photographed from a blind on the Shledon Lake State Park, Harris County, TX.
birdshooter > This Green Heron was photographed at Brazos Bend State Park. He became very vocal at a grackle who got close to his nest.
