Walking by a Tidal Flat

Last night after a hike in the Steer Swamp woods I was walking by a tidal flat and got to see a Great Egret and watched him pecking at the dark water coming up with a fish every time. First what impressed me was how fast he had to be to do it, and second, how good his vision at twilight finding fish in dark water. A couple walking by I allerted to this wonder and they too watched awhile with my binoculars. They were thrilled to see him as was I. Thank God for his wonders.
