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.

I miss it all so much already.

 

The core of our home galaxy, the Milky Way, backlights one of 16 remaining semaphore blades along the Raton and Glorietta Subdivisions. The WB signal indicates a clear; however, the next train would pass through here almost 12 hours after this photo was taken: stark contrast to the traffic volumes this route used to see.

IMO ..from a North American perspective this bird has foraging mannerisms intermedite between a Spotted Sandpiper and a Lesser Yellowlegs

 

Like the Spotted in that it intermediately does the "Rump Pump"

 

Although comparable in size top the Solitary Sandpiper , it forages at a faster pace - more vigorously and animated than a SOSA

Rather reminiscent of its cousin the Lesser Yellowlegs

 

Yet it is not so frenetic and frantic as a Greater Yellowlegs' typical feeding style

  

i was very fortunate on this particular morning with practically continuous views for almost an hour as it foraged

Congrats Geoffrey on finding this exquisite mega rarity

 

i had been 0 for 3 before this outing ..

 

There has been more water coverage than is typical at this location, this spring season.

One of the best spots for shorebirds & ducks around Greater Victoria - early 2021..and on into the summer

A track inspector [off duty] gave me a call this afternoon to let me know that he'd heard 474 getting a warrant south of Letts and had a CP SD60 leader. After spending the better part of the day fighting my toilet supply line, I decided to go for it at my favorite signal as it descended Rutledge hill.
