Title: Unsure Egret?
Post by Neil on Jan 10^th, 2006, 11:34pm

Taken today from the Deep Bay hide at MPNR. There were several small egrets with yellow bills with black tips . They are also covered with mud which confused things a bit. Could they be intermediated egrets?

Hi Neil,

It looks like an Intermediate Egret to me.
Your other pic looks like a juvenile Greater Coucal.
