Meet me at Bear Swamp. I’ll be the one wearing white.

Meet me at Bear Swamp pool.  I'll be the one wearing white...

For my first lap around the wildlife drive in the morning on Saturday, many of the Egrets present last week seemed to be missing until I got to the far end of Bear Swamp pool. There must have been some sort Great Egret convention going on though the presence of a few Great Blue Heron were noted as well as some Snowy Egrets.

From Saturday 8-1-2009 at Bombay Hook National Wlidlife Refuge near Smyrna, Delaware.

I shot this as 21 separate RAW exposures and then stitched it together with Auto Pano Pro. It’s my first attempt at panoramic photography and I made 1,000 mistakes in the process but I took good notes on what I screwed up and where in the process so that I can correct things for next time. The presence of so many Egrets in one area really lended itself to this type of shot.
