Around Santa Cruz we have both Snowy Egrets and Great Egrets. I was going to put them both on this page but then I got carried away with the Snowy Egret pictures so I've given the Great Egrets their own page.

This was part of a great session I had with this bunch of Snowy Egrets feeding at the edge of the water at Natural Bridges State Beach in February 2021.
This is probably my favorite from that day. I really like the splashing water.
This was also taken at Natural Bridges State Beach.
The January 2021 session at Natural Bridges was a bit windy.
I had to add this one. It shows a wider view of what was happening and I really like the feather action on the tops of the wings of the one landing. That feather action is even more evident in the one below.
Ok. I'm really done with the Snowy Egrets (for now :-).
