Great Egret in Flight

I couldn’t believe it when a great egret landed right by us last week in Forest Park, and I was also thrilled to get close-up view of it in flight when it took off a little while later…a truly majestic bird!

When we were in Forest Park last day for our field trip to the Missouri History Museum, we just had to stop by Pagoda Circle and see how the fall color is coming along. I was actually surprised at the amount of color we saw, even though it’s no where near the peak yet!
