Great Egret, Silberreiher, Egretta alba

Most pictures I managed to take from Great Egrets are at great distance ;)
This one from 2006 in Korea is the only one where I got a bit closer.

Cattle Egret, Bubulcus Ibis, Kuhreiher

Egypt 2010

This one was taken at the place we lived. They walked right in front of our balcony over the green grass (yes, we actually had green grass), hunting for lizards.

And these were taken in Dahab, at the sewers. One big thanks to my friend Bernadette for taking me :-)

Black stork, Schwarzstorch, Ciconia nigra


I remember the first time I’ve seen Black storks circling in the sky in Hungary.
It was amazing.
A few weeks later after hoping to see one of them closer up, I stumbled across one in the thickets near a lake.
He was as surprised as I was :)

And soon after I got a closer view of one of them flying by.
