Description
"Snowy Egret in Breeding Plumage" by Loree Johnson Photography. The elegant snowy egret (Egretta thula) becomes even more elegant during breeding season. In addition to developing the flowing plumes which were once in such demand as to threaten the survival of the species, its face takes on a reddish tone and its yellow feet become an even brighter shade of orange. This one was photographed in flight at the Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge.
