An occasional visitor 07-02-21

When I turned to back into my garage the other day I saw that the visiting egret was in my neighbor's flower bed looking for a lizard lunch.  I hope he found some as we have an abundance of lizards this year.  I suppose they eat bugs so I should welcome them, but too many is just too many.   I suppose this is the same egret that has visited our neighborhood a number of times in the past.  I always hope to get an image of him/her in flight - so elegant. 





His supple neck makes lovely curves and he keeps it moving all the time.  Perhaps the better to see his prey.

We saw an egret flying last week, but the photos were too blurry to use.

Just yesterday, I saw a large white bird (probably an egret) run a couple steps in front of my house, and then take off over my next door neighbor's roof. I was pretty excited, seeing one so close!

No pictures; I barely was in time to see it.
