#greatwhiteegrets — Public Fediverse posts

Visited #WWTWelney today, where I saw about 30 #CattleEgrets alongside the cows while drinking my tea in the cafe. Then saw a #GreatWhiteEgret in the reeds from the main hide. Finally, walking around Lady Fen I saw a couple more #GreatWhiteEgrets mixed in with the #CattleEgret - clearly distinguishable by the huge size difference (pictured). Don’t be taken in just because they’re near cows!
Also, they are #NotADuck

This #GreyHeron was a bit miffed to find it's latest feeding paradise in the long grass of the fallow field taken over by three #GreatWhiteEgrets. Surprisingly, no scuffles other than some brief grandstanding ensued, and all of the birds hung around together the entire morning.
