I was on the beach at first light and it didn't look like it was going to be much of a day. No birds, no Dolphins, not much going on. I was considering going back home for a cup of coffee. I stopped for a minute to talk to a lady about how slow it was this morning when somebody flipped a switch somewhere and the beach started waking up!
I got these pics of a Reddish Egret because the baitfish were nice enough to wander by me and brought the birds with them!
Post-processing was very minimal. When I get back home I will spend more time with them and pretty them up!
