Your shots of the Reddish Egrets are also very nice. All Egrets are Herons (members of the Ardeidae family), but not all Herons are Egrets. For the most part, Egrets are white Herons that have a distinctive mating display plumage. The name comes from the name for the plumage - "aigrette" in French. I think that this should be Marked, just as handy reference to a point that has had so many of us confused for so long. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: GESO: 2009 Favorites
Yes, that was my fawn. Fawns are easier, since they freeze unless you try to get quite close. Bucks are much more suspicious, and flee whenever they see you. The ones in my neighborhood seem terrified of any camera, and run as soon as I pull one out.

Ah, yes. Even I get confused with egrets too!
Christian, you're a wonderful photographer, you should have no egrets
