Weekly Puzzler #149: Will Dance for Food

Years ago when I was in Florida on a photography trip I had the chance to photograph this next amazing bird with the help of a long lens that I rented. This bird is fascinating to watch because he runs around in the water as if he is dancing, running this way and then that way, all the while herding fish so he can stab them with his sharp beak. It is fun to watch! In hindsight I should have taken some movies of this.

  1. My guess, the reddish egret. In all my years visiting Florida, I have not had the pleasure of seeing his dance.

      And your guess would be correct! I will check my video files to see if I taped it– sometimes I get so caught up in Photography that I don’t think to use the video feature. They are fun to watch when they are dancing for food, as they say.

      Yes, he was great fun to watch and photograph! We were in the right place at the right time. (and had the right lens!)
