I hate that my 50-d with the zoom is broken. Should of seen me trying to sneak up on this snowy egret with my g-9! He posed awhile for me though,what a nice bird!! :)Taken at the Las Vegas Wetlands. He was sitting on the rail at the new visitor center that will open this spring.

You did one amazing job with getting this pictured. You got close enough to bring out the beauty of the snow white and the details. Always love the intense look these birds have. Even got a bonus with some fish in its beak. Beautiful work Tammy. Have a great weekend dear friend. #10580185Nancy L. Green February 23, 2013

Dear Photo Friend: I feel that something has changed at Better Photo but cannot tell you just what has happened. I have been here since 2003 and most every month I have written to all the winners telling them how their work touches me. I have witnessed photographs that bring tears to my eyes and colors that are unbelievable, now I am worried that like all good things that it will not be here the next time I look.Janice Mezzacappa September 30, 2013
Love this shot Tammy funny I have been photographing a Heron near my house..chasing it down is fun lol..tough but fun :) #10857491Chris Ebben March 24, 2016
