Snowy egret
A Snowy egret is perched on a small solitary barnacled branch. The branch breeches water at a 30 degree angle to the water’s surface and abruptly ends a meter from it’s watery origins. The egret’s bright yellow talons grasp the branch as it issues a flight call. The smooth water surface reflects a symmetrically mirrored portrait of the Snowy egret on the branch.
