Little Egret feeding: Little Egret, 02-05-2023, Allan Kelly, Parklea, Port Glasgow, Clyde
This was taken in the early evening and light was beginning to fade, not helped by there being a slight drizzle in the air. The Little Egret had a couple of 'run-ins' with a Grey Heron before moving off, but just down the shore line by about 500m. Taken with Nikon mirrorless camera and 150-600mm Sigma lens.
