This Snowy Egret was having a bad hair day the morning I took this. It is in the top of a rookery tree in Willows, CA. Some of the trees were removed and/or trimmed since this photo to prevent the birds from nesting in town. Black-crowned Night Herons, Snowy and Cattle egrets caused so much stench that the city and county felt they had to stop them. For more egrets in Willows visit my Flickr photostream by clicking on the title link at the top of this blog.
I made the above panorama from eight images stitched together. It is taken from my spot overlooking the valley. Right in the center is where I grew up.
