Territorial fight is an integral part of wildlife. They defend their own space, food and female. Sounds human?

247) Intermediate Egret
Intermediate Egret, Mesophoyx intermedia, Bangau
It is a resident breeder from east Africa across the Indian subcontinent to Southeast Asia and Australia. This species, as its scientific name implies, is intermediate in size between the great egret and smaller white egrets like the little egret and cattle egret, though nearer to little than great. All-white plumage, generally dark legs and a thickish yellow bill. The intermediate egret stalks its prey methodically in shallow coastal or fresh water, including flooded fields. It eats fish, frogs, crustaceans and insects. It often nests in colonies with other herons, usually on platforms of sticks in trees or shrubs.
Tiada nama khas tempatan untuk spesis ini. Ia secara amnya dipanggil bangau. Saiznya antara Bangau Besar dan Bangau Kerbau. Seperti bangau lain, ia adalah pelawat tetap dari Afrika Timur yang terbang melintasi India untuk ke Asia Tenggara dan Australia.

The water levels at Knuckey Lagoon were quite low, but apparently just right for the several Egrets that were busily hunting prey.
An Intermediate Egret stalks Cumberland Lagoon where we stopped for morning tea. Cumberland, Queensland.
Moving at a blistering 30 MPH, an eastbound manifest has only the illusion of speed, as it works it's way up the grade approaching Shawmut Az
Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.

...from a visit to Buckley's Hole, Bribie Island. (Buckley's Hole Conservation Park is situated in the south-west corner of Bribie Island, the northern-most sand island in Moreton Bay, some 50 kilometres north of Brisbane. The park covers an area of 87.7 hectares and contains a freshwater lagoon, woodland, open forest and beach. It is this diversity of habitat that has led to such a large number of bird species being recorded in this small area, the present total standing at 270.)
