016 Great Egret 大白鷺 018 Little Egret 小白鷺 Mai Po 米埔 01/6/2003 by digiscoping http://hk.geocities.com/cywong5555/dscn3932s.jpg The egret on the right side of the above photo looks like a little egret, but it has black toes, not yellow toes, as shown in the photo below. Is it a little egret? http://hk.geocities.com/cywong5555/dscn3923s.jpg

Dear Miss Wong, I think it is a Little egret (by its unique breeding feather on it's head ,its blackish bill, its size .......). The toes were covered by mud so they looked black. Apache
