The white heron is so elegant! Texture of it feathers is delicate and pure. Your photos remind me of a castle nicknamed “White Heron Castel” in Japan. Great shots.

Beautiful shots, Mickie....I'd love to see one of these birds up close. The only time I did and thought I was going to get a great shot of it, it turned out to be fake and everyone laughed at me for not knowing so. Hope your day is special.

Nice pictures, I like the beauty of these reflections in the water.

I think that's an egret. Common Egret to be more exact. The white herons are huge, and have yellow legs.

Aren't they beautiful....I love the very last image and its reflection. Well done.
