An Evening Egret

One early evening last week I was visiting Ferrybridge water. 

The sun started to set behind the wall of pebbles which separate the tidal water from Portland Harbour and the Chesil Beach water front.

This Little Egret dropped in on the water's edge and started a search for food, so I was able to get a few shots of it as the light faded.

Generally, Little Egrets are not that approachable and will only allow you to reach a certain distance from them before getting airborne. 

So its always best to keep a good distance and not disturb them.
