Bird: how much Body and how much Feathers
Posted on September 22, 2024
We visited the Audobon society many times this summer, and at one point saw many Egrets. After snapping lots of shots from a distance and not sure what would come out, I saw this one of an Egret backlit in flight which just so beautifully - and surprisingly to this lay person - illustrated how small the bird body is vs the total area we see including feathers.
Here they are just sitting, and also just a seagull in flight I liked.
