How nice to earn two Marks of Excellence too! Thanks to those who voted for this photo. I had been watching some snowy egrets nesting in a big tree when I turned around and noticed this one in the distance, heading for the tree as well. I guessed he'd be flying directly over my head, and luckily I had plenty of time to prepare the settings on my Canon 5D. I captured a series of shots in burst mode, with this being the best.
