Birding: Great Egret

Last weekend, I spotted this Great Egret hanging out in Romkey Pond (just behind Hirtle's Beach).  It did not move much that afternoon.  I guess it found a good fishing spot and was content to stay put and fill its belly.  These are a rare sight in this part of the world.  


I wish I had set up my tripod to get some clearer shots, this one was shot from the car with me leaning over the passenger seat to shoot out the window.
