Dance of the Great Egret

I've read about the egret's flair for showing off and engaging in extraordinary dance and plumage displays, but... a picture's worth a 1000 words, maybe less now, but still useful.
This is in the height of nesting season in the mist of a rookery in Southwest Florida. You can see the "little fluff balls" (the juveniles) and they're quite cute. In fact they get a bit caught up in the flurry of displays and the cacophony of sounds. Until mom came by with a flyby intervention.

:)) Thank you Krystyna. My own eyes continue to get more fuzzy! But photos & videos remain sharp, along with memory. (So far!)
Of course, your work (photos/patyk) is amazing! So your visit and comments (here and 'there') are always appreciated. Enjoy the remaining bits of summer!

And thank you again, Krystyna.
It makes a nice companion to my new images of their neighbors, the Great Blue Herons - @ diasp.org/posts/23838948
Now someday I need to add these all to my "Birds" collection on my "herons" page. Tomorrow and tomorrow.... Warm regards from a warming Northern Hemisphere!
