2024—More from the Flash Mob

I joined the Lincoln Hills Photography Club a month before I moved into my new home there last year. It’s an interesting and lively group and there are always lots of things going on. The Flash Mob events are really fun because it’s all last minute and you don’t have to think too hard about anything. An email comes the day before announcing the Flash Mob event and location and if you’re available to go and it’s something that interests you, you grab your camera go. I joined my first Flash Mob in March because the rookery behind the nearby Lowe’s shopping center was active and the Great Egrets and a few others were building nests. A dozen or more people joined the group. We had front row seats to watch the birds flying to and from nest sites. This Great Egret is in full breeding plumage with its lores a bright lime green.
