Cattle Egret are sometimes under appreciated. I just want to share a couple of shots of them. Hope you like them.

(Sorry about the typo....I think they deserve a turn). :roll:

Nicely done. The one flying is quite a nice catch.

These are great! To me, the Cattle Egret is one of the most stunning birds when in breeding plumage! To go from just a plain little, overlooked bird to a golden beauty is quite a transformation!

Thanks very much Bigal! These have their breeding plumage. Normally they are almost completely white except for a small patch of tan colored feathers on the back of their head.
