Gulp 2012-03-21 I'm not sure what kind of bird this is - the curved bill makes me guess "Ibis", but the colors are not right for an Ibis. At any rate, it swallowed the fish even before its bill left the water. It seems to have a satisfied look on its face. Update: It is a glossy ibis. Thanks Lori and your friend Jason Many thanks for the comments on my dragonfly/alligator combination.
Happy Bird 2012-03-13 One happy Egret who just swallowed a little lizard (and one slightly unhappy photographer who didn't get in place soon enough). Enjoy your day.
Great Egret 2012-03-10 As seen at the Venice FL rookery. And thanks for the comments on my buzzard picture. Update: @RuSu - the brighter green is due to active hormones this time of year.
