Hidden Egret

I know this Egret thinks she is blending in as she stalks her prey in the marsh grasses, "hiding in plain sight" so to speak. And I do believe that she can stand still enough, for long enough, to catch a little breakfast. Of course for us, her showy white feathers give her away completely. These beautiful white birds are total head turners. They get me every time.

Egrets and Blue Herons are some of my favorite birds. We see them a lot here in Naples, Fl. Your paintings capture them perfectly!
