Great Egret Hunting in Shallow Wetland Waters
Sunday, April 26th, 2026 at 10:16:21 PM · 2026/Yolo Bypass Wetlands
A brilliant white Great Egret wades through shallow, muddy water in a wetland habitat. The bird is captured mid-hunt, its long neck curved in a characteristic S-shape as it searches for prey. The water reflects the egret's form, and the surrounding environment shows exposed mudflats and green vegetation along the banks. The murky brown water and mixture of soil and algae create distinct layers in the composition, characteristic of seasonal wetland flooding patterns.
