Egret photoset part 2!

After dining on the first eel, our egret was apparently still hungry, and ferociously captured a second one, before sneaking off behind a rock to finish eating.

We walked around to the northwest point of Two Trees Island and about ten minutes later were treated to the sight of our egret flying from the bay side to the marsh side of the Twin Islands.

(see part 1)

Because it just isn’t a shore hike without some quality egret time …

(part one of a nice fat egret photoset - you can also see part two!)

Because my first word was “bird,” I thought I’d share as a bonus today this Great Egret doing what I think of as “going all necky” up at Pelham Bay Park.

In less silly terms, the egret is fishing.
