Thanks, Ann! Yes, I'm convinced the shadows are from the sun's reflecting off the ripples. Had I not metered off the body of the egret I can't imagine they would have been visible. They're presence is a big reason I posted the image.

JAck - were the "stripes" of light on the bird made from the ripples (as Paul surmised) or are they from something off camera to the left? I though thte latter.
