Little Blue Deep In Thought

One has to love the various shades and coloration found in nature's camouflage. I am still trying to figure-out how the white of the egret's feathers can serve them but they don't seem to have trouble finding food. Herons, on-the-other-hand, have adapted some impressive varieties of camo. Here, because of the darker background and my camera settings, I was able to get the subtle colors of this beautiful little blue heron to stand out a bit more. In certain light, especially early and late light, it blends in very well with its backgrounds.
