My favorite heron and egret spots are especially active here in California.

Best regards,

Tony

Hello everyone. I wanted to share a couple of my recent shots. While walking home after a day of photographing my usual herons, egrets and cormorants, this gorgeous Red-tailed Hawk lands no more than five feet from me. Here's a few of my favorites from that very fortunate encounter. Hand-held, no cropping.

Thank you. These egret photos were taken in Santa Cruz, California, which is approximately 70 miles south of San Francisco. The majority of my bird & wildlife photos include cities within the Monterey Bay Area such as Moss Landing, Pacific Grove, Santa Cruz, Monterey, and Carmel. All coastal.
