​This tousled snowy egret was foraging in a wetland in South Carolina last time I was there. Will I ever be able to return? Nothing is certain anymore. I remember this day well...strong backlight, spoonbills and egrets feeding in the mud flats, the sun sparkling off the water and a strong warm breeze blowing the feathers of the birds in every conceivable direction. I'm not sure what prompted me to attempt this piece, other than the challenge those feathers presented, but perhaps it was the nostalgia of the memory.
