A Great Egret was seen shadowing behind it. I was lucky to have both on the same frame ...     Canon EOS-1v, EF600/4L Fuji Provia 100F   Best kk -------------- http://www.geocities.com/kkhui_001 « Last Edit: May 13th, 2004, 4:58pm by BBS Moderators » Logged Louis C Guest Re: Intermediate Egret « Reply #1 on: Feb 4th, 2003, 7:42pm » Quote Modify Remove Dear KK Hui   good pic! But it looks like a great egret rather than an intermediate egret as the mouth line goes beyond the eye.   Louis Logged KK Hui BBS Member BBS God Bird Photography - at its best ...     Posts: 940 Re: Intermediate Egret « Reply #2 on: Feb 4th, 2003, 8:38pm » Quote Modify Louis,   Thanks for pointing out the obvious - just testing!     But seriously, can you go a step further to tell us why the front bird (in focused) is substantially smaller, even considering the difference in shooting distance, than the one behind which is a Great Egret without doubt (it's OOF here) in my mind. On closer look, the front bird has dull yellow bill and dusky tip in comparison ... Perhaps its a sign of breeding change process?   Or perhaps would any experienced birder(s) like to offer some explanations on this? Much appreciated!   Best kk -------------- http://www.geocities.com/kkhui_001 « Last Edit: Feb 4th, 2003, 9:25pm by KK Hui » Logged Pages: 1  Reply Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- Announcement 簡訊通告 -----------------------------  - Membership Affair 會員事務   - Outings / Activities 戶外活動 / 講座   - Projects 項目計劃   - Crested Bulbul Club 紅耳鵯俱樂部 ----------------------------- Discussion Area 討論區 -----------------------------  - General 一般問題   - Conservation 自然保育   - Bird Identification 鳥類辨識   - Birding Reports & Tips 觀鳥報告及心得 => Photo Gallery 相片分享 I   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 II ----------------------------- Special Topics 特別主題 -----------------------------  - Wild Birds & Avian Flu 野鳥與禽流感   - Sustainable Management Scheme in Long Valley 塱原可持續生態管理計劃   - Black-faced Spoonbill 黑臉琵鷺   - Goodbye Penfold 告別彭福   - Tern Conservation 燕鷗保育   - Black-eared Kite 鳶(麻鷹)   - Swifts and Swallows 燕與雨燕   - China Birdwatching Network 中國觀鳥活動網絡   - Winter Altas Survey 冬季鳥類普查   - Nature Conservation Policy 自然保育政策 ----------------------------- Knowledge Sharing 知識分享 -----------------------------  - FAQ 常見問題   - Archive 資料重溫 « Previous topic | Next topic »
