And I misquoted myself calling them Snowys rather than Great Egrets. The photos are gorgeous by the way. Could you tell me what camera and lens you used at how far were you from the birds. I shoot a lot of wildlife myself and am always interested in how folks get such great shots.

Beautiful display of family life. The babies look at the parent w/adoration.

My camera is a Fuji S1. My camera has a built in lens. I think it was on 400. The egrets were right in the trees around the edge of the lake along the walking path. So I would say I was maybe 25 ft. The trees are very tall.
