We photographed this Western Great Egret from the dock at Nxamaseri Island Lodge (Maun, Botswana) the morning of August 22, 2012. We'd just returned to the lodge from a birding expedition when a Western Great Egret, Ardea alba, flew overhead. After packing our things, we were heading to the airport for a flight to Xakanaxa Lodge in Botswana's Moremi Game Reserve. Temperatures were in the low 70's.
