Cattle Egret
We've seen them in the pastures with the cows and they fly over in flocks of a dozen or more, but this was the first time we've seen them in our small pond.

Re: Steph\'s Nature Pics
Very nice pictures. I've been a birder for 15 years now (I'm 21) and it's cool to see people interested in them and nature itself. I taught myself and very few people were in to birds when I was younger and very few wanted to talk about them so I kept to myself a lot when it came to that subject. Now, it seems people have a little more respect for nature, even if you're slightly interested in them, it's good to see that there are those interested. You're lucky, in Texas there is a lot of oppurtunity to see rare non-native species, those that wonder a little too far north from Mexico and even S. America.
Thanks for sharing the pics.

Re: Steph\'s Nature Pics
Eddie, it looks like Steph is really enjoying her new camera. Her photo composition is getting much better. In the beginning you are always overwhelmed with the camera, but after you learn it's basic features you start to concentrate more on the subject and how the image will look. I think I see that transition happening. I have a bazillion pictures of wildflowers and bugs that I took with my camera. Kathy also has loads of wildflower pictures she took. Now, her pictures look better than mine. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Steph\'s Nature Pics
Eddie,
Thanks for the info. I just received mine the other day. I got the package deal they had (camera, carrying case, 1 gig card and lens cleaning kit for $383.99 I think) plus they had free shipping (FedEx) to boot. I was surprised at how fast it came. The camera is awesome. I had been checking it out ever since a prior thread about the digital camcorder taking stills. I've had my old Fuji Finepix for 4 years and it was time to upgrade.
I hope you are getting a commission Eddie!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

This little guy has been giving her fits. They never stay still very long, and 5 seconds is a long time for them. It's very hard to get the picture of them because of how they keep going from place to place!!!!
