Artist's notes:

great egret thumb The Great Egret was completed on 4.05.2010. I had considered drawing the Great Egret with wings folded perhaps standing on a stump or rock - as is the most commonly seen position of these birds. But they are so graceful and lovely in flight I had to render the subject that way. The drawing is based on a photo by Patty Bruno.
