Friends, this great white bird is a great egret, a few of these come this far north, very few, but there are three birds hanging around fish lake which is another wildlife refuge that is just a few mile down the road from Crex. They share the Glacial Grantsburg Lakes ecology.  In a recent photo contest, one of the categories was pleasing blurs, do you think this image would qualify as pleasing, the wing tips are blurred. til Tomorrow MJ
