Egrets not egress
In a better world, the Dodgers' Billy Preston Gate would open only for egrets. Like this snowy egret captured by Martin Cox over the weekend. Chicken Corner's hardest-working waterfowl papparazzo used a long-distance lens as the publicity-shy bird shopped for fry on one of the small, grassy Echo Park Lake islands. I've seen one like it on the big island and in a palm tree over the lake, perhaps the same individual.
