Watercolor: Great Egret at Inverness - 10" x 14"



On a photo day with my son Dan in mid-December 2022, I watched this Great Egret (Ardea alba) standing in shallow water at the edge of Tomales Bay near Inverness, California, waiting for a fish to spear. None appeared this time, and he eventually flew away with his great wing strokes. The Great Egret is found on most continents (except Australia). It in the heron family, and is also known as the Great White Egret and the Great White Heron. I tried to capture the dancing waters behind the egret with various colors of blue horizontal lines. 221223. Watercolor, 10" x 14".
