Snowy Egret Photos

Photography by Terry Sohl

My Favorite: I'm VERY fond of the photos at the bottom, showing both a Great Egret and a Snowy Egret together. But I guess I should choose a Snowy Egret (alone) shot for my "favorite". The photo comes from the same day as the Great and Snowy Egret photos, April 19th, 2020 near Lake Madison, South Dakota. It touches on what I'd want in a "favorite" Snowy Egret photo, showing those beautiful yellow "slippers", and the wonderful, fine breeding plumage.
