Description The Reddish Egret is, for me, the Holy Fool of the avian world, for it transforms the work of fishing into a sacred, spontaneous dance.  I especially love watching it when it leaps into the air like a ballerina and then spins suddenly, like a dervish. This particular Egret danced at least a dozen times for me on Fort DeSoto Beach--and managed to catch sizable fish at least half the time!

I've had the pleasure of watching great blues, night heron and various egret but I've never seen these they are lovely!
