I noticed thiscattle egret grooming its feathers by the pond while taking a walk outdoors. After watching it for a long time, I cautiously approached it. It only glanced at me before continuing to groom its feathers as if I wasn't even there, completely unconcerned by my presence or my attempts to take a photo. I especially love how it stands by the pond, reflecting in the water, and looks so beautiful, which is why I took this photo.

I am a text creator. Photography is an amateur hobby. I feel more like a storyteller or a hunter than I am obsessed with literal identity. I am trying to dig out and hunt more stories whether through pen or lens. . In the past, my works were mostly shared on Eyeem or Facebook. I hope that more people can see what I see in the future.
