BLACK EGRET // EGRETTA ARDESIACA (66cm)
GAMBIA FEB 2019
================
UMBRELLA EGRET, it is also called by many. Have seen a least ten of these birds working together in the shallows, especially where prey becomes trapped in the subsiding pools. Sophisticated and characteristic foraging involves the bird spreading its wings forward to create a canopy or umbrella, and sometimes in synchrony. Found at the coast near Kotu, and am always drawn towards this, despite seeing it so many times before.

THANK YOU for being a friend, love reading your kind comments, Trust your weekend is going well, stay safe, and may Gods blessings be upon you, in what ever you do............
