Description
"Egret Chick in Nest with Parent” by Patti Deters. A baby Great White Egret (Ardea alba) is safe in her nest and protected by her adult parent. Egrets are long-legged water birds, and are members of the heron family. This young bird is the only one in her nest – most clutches have 3-4 eggs. The parent egret is actually preening her feathers, but the overhead wing makes it appear to be protecting the juvenile from, perhaps, the sun. Painterly textures have been added for artistic effect.
