I photographed a few TriColored Herons (Egretta tricolor) along the Anhinga Trail. Along the Anhinga Trail, the Tri’s were pretty tranquil, usually quietly waiting for a fish to swim within easy grasp. Here are a few images I captured in the Everglades:
At one time, the Tricolored Heron was know as the Louisiana Heron. Guess it decided to travel on to other places :o)
