Great Egret with wings spread wide.

A full shot depicts a great egret as it spreads its wings and begins to take flight. The bird has snow-white feathers, a long, slender neck, a long yellow beak, and dark legs and feet. Its left wing is angled upward, while its right wing is angled downward. The bird, whose body is angled slightly to the left, has turned its head so that it is angled slightly toward the viewer. The egret is amidst shrubbery with green leaves and red berries, along with some bare, brown twigs. Much more green shrubbery appears in the background, and behind that is a sky that is mostly gray with a hint of blue.
