While practicing on my early morning shoot, I saw these huge birds about to make a pass over
my rooftop. Quickly I moved my 5DM2 upwards and tried to focus on the trio. I would say 3 out
of 5 bursts made my day.. .
Here they are - are these Little Egrets??

Exposure 0.001 sec (1/2000)
Aperture f/5.6
Focal Length 400 mm
ISO Speed 200
Exposure Bias +2/3 EV

for light is nothing without shadows.. .

The orangy head and neck of some of the birds indicate these are in breeding plumage. Ref. photo:
