Gone to See America. February 2014 Florida Road Trip. Day 4: Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.
Nearly Five Hours Later and the Great Egret is Still Having Problems Swallowing the Fish. Biolab Road, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge in Florida. Image taken with a Nikon D4 camera and 600 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 280, 600 mm, f/4, 1/1250 sec). It finally got it part way down its neck, but then didn’t look like it could fly.
