Description
This lovely egret in mating plumage is hanging out in the dense underbrush at the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine, Florida. Hundreds of birds come to this area, and specifically to the Wading Bird Rookery to mate, build nests, and bring up their young. Sometimes the birds are so close you can almost reach out and touch them. It is a paradise for photographers during the Spring months.
