Egret Takes Flight: Photos Of The Day

An egret and its mirror image.

SACRAMENTO, CA — Claus Weisemann spotted this egret during a walk in Sacramento on Saturday. Claus told Patch in an email that he "noticed his mirror image in the water. As I tried to get closer, he (or she?) took off and flew away, his image reflected in the calm water of the canal."

Beautiful photos, Claus! Thank you for sharing them with Patch readers.
