(Mesophoyx intermedia) It is a medium-sized heron. 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. It is about 56–72 cm (22–28 in) long with a 105–115 cm (41–45 in) wingspan and weighs c.400g (14 oz), with all-white plumage, generally dark legs and a thickish yellow bill.

Of water birds there were very few: White-breasted Water Hen, a few egrets, Indian Pond Heron, two Black-necked Storks and a single pair of Sarus Cranes. No ducks were to be found. There were also some large turtles in the small areas of wetland.
I thought this was unusual to find deep in the metro area. It was in company with white ibis near the edge of the lake. I initially thought it was a Little Egret until I realised the beak colour was wrong. The area is a regular haunt for Little Egrets. A BirdlIife expert advised that it is not a Cattle Egret but a very much out of range Intermediate that has been hanging out there for some time. Still a first for me in the SW - hardly surprising with the publicised range. I initially opted for a Cattle E as I knew there was a small flock of them only a few km south near the Wellard Wetlands.
