The Trinity River in the summer. This is wild country.
A lone cattle egret flies down river.
Bliss says to beware of predators hiding along the riverbank!

It’s very popular with the kayaker’s and rafters. When Mary and I were teenagers we used to tube on the river. We didn’t know each other back then. She grew up by the river.

That’s why I became a forester. My dad suggested accounting or computer science when I was in college. That was back in the key punch card days. I took classes in both and decided I needed to work outdoors.

Cattle egret… what a beautiful bird 🙂

They are indeed. The name “cattle egret” is not very fitting, but for the fact that they like to hang out in the pastures with the cows. They have a close relative named the “snowy egret”, a much more elegant name. I think we should rename them the “stately egret.”

I was just wondering why “cattle”. In my language they are called “golden”, or even “auric”- along google translator 🙂
