“Bye Mom!”

Juvenile Great Egret in Flight with adult in background

Eglantine (in the background) and Edith (already airborne) prepare to leave their muddy ditch for a fishing pool.

 

“Thanks for the lesson and I’ll see you at sundown,” says Edith the Juvenile Egret. That’s her mother in the background…

Mom had been teaching her little one how to root for snacks in the marsh mud. Now school’s out and Edith flies out to discover the rest of her watery world, levitating out of the ditch, trailed by a sister who’s just outside of this frame. More later!
