Sunday, April 26th, 2026 at 10:30:55 PM · 2026/Yolo Bypass Wetlands
A pristine white great egret is captured in profile, its long neck forming a graceful S-curve as it surveys shallow wetland waters. The bird's distinctive orange-yellow bill contrasts beautifully against its white plumage. In the foreground, vibrant green grasses and small yellow wildflowers frame the composition, while the soft-focused background shows the muddy, shallow waters typical of seasonal wetlands. The lighting illuminates the egret's feathers, creating subtle shadows that define its form and posture as it appears to be hunting or watching for prey.
