Male Snowy Egrets in Breeding Plumage – Part 2

Last week, I shared a single image of a Snowy Egret in breeding plumage. That particular egret was at the pinnacle of his readiness to breed as was indicated by the bright red lore (the mask between his beak and eyes). However, male snowys grow and display their breeding plumage before they reach their peak readiness at which time their lore is still yellow. Though not as stunning, they are still beautiful.
