Ballerina Egret Dancing with a Frog

I love birds. They are such fascinating creatures. Many are elegant, Some are Goofy, Some are very smart,
All are beautiful. The egrets are very fun to watch.

Earlier in 2007, I observed This Egret hunting for Frogs at Largo Botanical Gardens.
Watching her hunt reminded me of a Ballerina as she Dipped and swirled around on the water,
Hunting, then spinning around and flying off with breakfast in her mouth...
