Thanks, Thomas, I appreciate your comment! Yep those big Ol Spindly birds are deadly on fishes! There were probably 500 or so Egrets where I was shooting only problem with the 55-300 I really didn't have the range I needed for some shots but you work with what you have, I guess!

Nailed the shot here Larry, my friend. An interestingly foamy scene, too!
