Scratching
The Cattle Egret (Bubulcus ibis) has gone through one of the most rapid natural expansions of any bird. Originally native to Africa and Asia, it has expanded its range around the world. It arrived in the United States in 1941 and has since spread all the way to Alaska and Newfoundland and has bred in nearly all fifty states. Cattle Egret is an opportunistic feeder and follows cattle or farm machines around to catch insects. It is estimated that they gather 50% more food using only two-thirds as much energy when feeding livestock. They are also attracted to fire because they know that there will be various insects fleeing from the heat and flames that they can easily catch and eat. Spiders are a common part of their diet.
