My wife, Mrs. SG made this egret photo a few days ago. She saw the bird moving into an area of shadow and when it's neck was in shadow but it's face was lit by sunlight she grabbed the shot.
She is getting quite good at this considering she has zero experience handling a DSLR camera.

The green around the egret's face is breeding color.

Here's another of her shots. An egret landing in the salt marsh with the oyster beds behind it.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Do you rent her your equipment, Gator? She has quite an eye, exquisite photos.
