I’m pretty certain that this will be the final photograph in my recent series of photographs of this egret at Whalers Cove, Point Lobos State Reserve, California.

OK, I think I’m coming almost to the end of this series – there is one more egret photograph after this one if I’m correct. :-)

An egret raises its wings after catching a fish in the kelp beds at Whalers Cove, Point Lobos State Reserve, California.

Another in the egret series from Whalers Cover at Point Lobos. This bird had just caught the fish you see in its beak and was making a quick move across the kelp in which it had been fishing before swallowing the fish.

An egret with wings extended catches a fish in the kelp at Whalers’ Cove, Point Lobos State Reserve, California.

Another photograph of the egret that cooperated so nicely with my attempts to make photographs during my late November visit to Point Lobos. This photograph was made seconds after the bird had caught a fish in the kelp bed and was about to consume it.
