Solitude - Great Egret - a photo on Flickriver

            This Great Egret photograph was taken on a lake along the Spain-Portugal border.

The great egret is the largest of its family to nest in Europe – with dimensions ranging from 85 cm to well over 1 m and a wingspan that in this species can also reach 170 cm, for about 1,000 grams of weight – it’s quite a large bird. Males and females are identical; they have a completely white livery, with a green eye ring and a yellow or partially black beak.
