Alert “06880” reader/photographer/nature lover Seth Schachter was strolling along the Sherwood Mill this morning.
He spotted an egret in the raceway at Compo Cove. The handsome bird was looking for fish coming off high tide, as they swept through the gates.
Seth’s patience was rewarded.
So was the egret’s, as these photos show.
Poor fish. Doesn’t the egret understand that killing another living creature for food is wrong? That the vegan lifestyle is the way to go? That kale is the answer?
i use to fish in that exact spot as a kid… Guess my secret’s out!
