Little Egret hunting

[ruley74]

As most of you will know, the little egret is much more animated when hunting, dancing about etc. Five shots from a series caught today out in the bay on low tide.

D500/200-500, 1/3200, F/5.6, ISO 100ish, -1.3EV

A beautiful egret ballet and then a not so graceful dive and then lunch! Great series!
