Posing prettily one foot away

When our family went to Jamaica last week for our son’s wedding, I left my Canon camera and big lens behind so I wouldn’t be tempted to bird instead of spend quality time with family.   We were only there for 3 days, after all.  But when having breakfast in an open-air restaurant every morning, we were joined by uninvited, but amusing party crashers.  I couldn’t help but get some pictures with my Sony when the birds were so willing to pose!

Cattle Egret helps himself to leftovers

I didn’t know egrets liked ham!

Down the hatch!

Hmmm…what else is there to eat?

Think I’ll try some scrambled eggs! Ewww…spit those out!
