Sunday, April 26th, 2026 at 10:16:27 PM · 2026/Yolo Bypass Wetlands
This wildlife photograph captures a solitary Great Egret standing in shallow, murky water in what appears to be a flooded agricultural or wetland area. The elegant white bird with its distinctive S-curved neck and yellow-orange bill is positioned on a small muddy island surrounded by brown water reflecting the sky. The background shows layers of vegetation and muddy terrain, creating a natural gradient from water to land. The setting appears to be during or after a period of flooding, with submerged vegetation and debris visible throughout the wetland habitat.
