A week of waves, and the Egrets are Everywhere — pat morss

Posted on by patmorss

Arriving home from Norway we were greeted by a week of wind and waves, and the Egrets (and Herons) had taken over Niles Pond.

Waves were not large, but persistent for days with continuous wind
A trawler bucking the swells, outbound
A visiting square-rigged schooner coasting in
Finding a calm anchorage inside Dogbar breakwater
The Flying Wallendas, Jet-ski style
In quiet waters, a Snowy Egret on Niles Pond
A larger cousin, one of 4 Great Egrets, executes a one-footed feather fluff
Then down to business with some serious fishing
No success, so I’ll try another part of the pond
Our First Family of Mallards in the early evening light
