Egrets

These two egrets were standing at the edge of Lake Ella on a cool afternoon. The tall one is a great egret and I think the smaller one is a snowy egret. They eat fish, so maybe they were waiting for one to swim by. You can see the Lake Ella gazebo next to the willow tree in the background. The gazebo sits in the middle of the lake on a small man-made peninsula. Lake Ella is located in the middle of town and is a popular place to go for walking or feeding the ducks.
