Description
It was that time of year, spring. It was time to dress up in pretty feathers. The air was thrumming with energy and excitement. The trees throughout Gatorland in Orlando were full of mating and ready-to-mate waterbirds. Most of them were in the heron family. Like so many other people, I was there to see the beautiful birds. This one particularly struck my fancy. It was a joy to paint.
The great egret is easily identified by the combination of its large size, black legs, and stout orange-yellow bill. It is slender, long necked, tall, and graceful in bearing. The great Egret lacks head plumes. During breeding, the lores become rich green, and the long back (scapular) plumes become evident; the latter at times are stained buff or brownish.
