Snowy Egret looks around while trying to fish at the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge in Oceanville, New Jersey on Sunday morning 4-26-2009.
I spent a lot of time with this guy on Sunday. Every time another car would slow or stop, he and his companion would fly to the other side of the channel, only to return once the car had passed. I remained still and he accepted my presence over a period of time and I was able to get some good shots of him until the next car would come along the eight mile refuge drive.
