Tim and I walked around an area called The Yards, on the Anacostia River, that has simply exploded with development since we’ve been back from Riyadh. While heading for a shot of Nationals Stadium, we happened to see this egret fishing on the river. I may post other pictures of him, but this was my favorite. I actually jumped when he did this so am amazed I got anything, and I really shouldn’t crop iPhone pictures this much, but with this kind of subject, it’s necessary. I didn’t bring my camera because I was sure I wouldn’t see anything that required a long lens. Lesson learned.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
