It was not long ago that I would see photos similar to this and wonder if it was a real bird. Never had I imagined I would be fortunate enough to get such a shot. I'm very thankful and somewhat stunned! This is my favorite photo because I worked so hard with a limited camera to get it. I spent many hours chasing the her on. I felt stunned and joyful when I saw it.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. I've been chasing Herons around a state park for a month with my point and shoot; imagine my surprise when this came up on the computer!

Wonderful shot! It's a heron, is it? I was photographing one in the creek yesterday (not as well as this) but I wasn't sure what sort of bird it was.

It's a snowy egret; a type of heron. Thanks for the compliment! If you feel up to it, would you consider voting for it in the Image of the Month contest? Thanks

The feathers are fascinating. Congratulations on this shot. It's hard to believe it's real. I will be watching for it in contests to vote.
