Description

You go your way, I’ll go mine. A Great Blue Heron and Great Egret trade places in the early morning across the Everglades grassland marsh at the edge of an air boat trail. We were waiting to begin our birding trip with many holding binoculars up to peer across this pristine environment to see what treasures they can find.
