In this color image, an elegant White egret preens at water's edges in a stand of aquatic pickerel weed.


An elegant White Egret preens its beautiful aigrettes beside wetland waters. Its living artistry and regal bearing always beautiful to see. The aigrettes or ornamental back plumes are present only during the breeding season and will slowly fall off as its chicks mature. Note: This image is also available as a toned black and white on my gallery here on Alamy.
