swaying in the breeze

I noticed this great egret hunting from across the pond, I watched it for a few minutes and noticed it was only in one spot where there was a perfect view to get close. As I approached the bird I was afraid it would fly off, lucky for me it was not a full grown egret and did not seem to mind my presence. It got to the point where I had to step back because I could not get a clear shot of the bird (have a lot of profile type shots)...the bird then jumped into the reeds and tried to hide itself.
