Gorgeous shot of a snowy who stayed dry because s/he carried an attached umbrella.

An early morning "sun shower" sent this snowy egret looking for cover under a wing. The shower yielded only a few drops of water (see droplets in the pond) but this Snowy stayed dry--and pretty.

Thanks for looking.

Larry

Excellent capture, Larry

Wow, beautiful. How long did you wait until Snowy gave you this pose? And how many shots did you take to get this one?

Thanks for looking LarryN. Actually I took only two shots/ Snowy was fishing making several short flights from rock to rock (I was trying for flight shots) when he landed on this spot. I took two shots of roughly the same pose but liked the angles on this one the best. I'm posting below the flight shot taken just before his landing and umbrella pose. I really do not like the flight shot. The whole sequence took about 10 minutes from spotting him to the umbrella shot.

That's terrific; two great shots in 10 minutes. BTW, why don't you like the in-flight shot because I like it a lot?
