Subject: [Egrets] Panic-striken Egret and Heron [Print This Page] Author: lwingkay Time: 18/02/2008 00:00 Subject: Panic-striken Egret and Heron
This afternoon strolling at The Chinese University of Hong Kong with my long idling D200 and Nikkor AFS f4 300mm to which a 1.4x-extender had been added, a woman came in my direction and pointed to me a cattle egret perching higher up a tree on the opposite bank. She shouted and clapped to the egret, seemingly to say hello to a long-time-no-see friend. This intrusion into the tranquility was met with the egret fleeing away. I followed the egret's fleeing route immediately and came up with this one, in which was accidentally included a Chinese pond heron that was also fleeing away.
