Sign In to followActually looking at another picture of a Great Egret of mine, this ones rear feathers were almost wispy. I've heard the term Snowy Egret? Does that sound like it could be one of those?
Also, I heard the Monarchs were going extinct. And I thought I was seeing them everywhere though, and it was actually these I saw. Any knowledge about the Monarchs status?
Cool thanks! I'm always learning and love being in contact on here with people are are so knowledgable. Thanks for all your suggestions :)
Some of these pics were just for fun and taken with apps like Instagram. It gives it that washy look and made it appear unclear, unfortunately. I wish I had a great camera and could take closer and clearer shots! I think it was a Great White Egret? It was medium to large in size and had a yellow bill. I think the legs were a darker color but can't remember. Definitely more slender than a goose but I'd say just as tall.
Thanks florida33girl! I accidentally had Heron written before. I've had trouble uploading things properly on my new phone. I didn't think it was a Great Cormorant bc it seemed a little different after researching. Also this isn't a very clear pic. But I think your right about it being a Double Crested Cormorant. Thanks!
No I'm sorry it was in FL at St Marks. I keep trying to do Florida when I upload but this app is finicky!
No Florida! I am not sure why it says Kansas? I'm new to this I must have hit something wrong. This was in Tallahassee, FL :)
Nope! I usually use the Instagram or Polaroid app. This turkey was right on the edge going up the mountain. Was a fun spotting!
