We took a couple mile walk on the beach Thursday morning. The sunrise was amazing (last photo below). I got all excited when I saw this Snowy Egret land near us. All I had with me was my iPhone, but that did not stop me. I walked in his direction, snapping photos as I approached him. When he took off, I followed. I finaly called it and finished our hike. Keep in mind, none of these photos of this bird are up to my normal standard. It was just too far away. But hey, I love to share.

Our room was on the 12th floor, facing the beach. We had not been in our rom long when I saw this Snowy Egret land on the beach below. Yes, I had my big camera with me, so I started snapping photos. They did not come out perfect, but here they are.

Never give up on that special photo .. it may not be perfect, but th journey is worth it. Enjoy .. I did.
