Enjoy Observation of Egrets

Egret watching is very enjoyable. The Grey Heron, which reminds us of the descendant of the pterosaur, the Great White Egret, an elegant prima donna of the waterside, the Intermediate Egret, a white poetic charm in a greenly shining rural rise field in Japanese summer, the Cattle Egret, the prince and princess beauty with orange hair , the Little Egret, a comical clown, and the Black-crowned Night Heron, an indigo light purple work of art. All of them form a colony at a similar place, but feeding places and feeding behavior are different. The interest in Egrets does not run out.

Identification of flyig Egrets

Identification of Egret species in fly is very difficult but very enjoyable. Why enjoyable? Because we identify and count the Egrets with the fellow members while eating snacks, chattering, jokingly discussing the species like, that is a Great Egret, no, that is an Intermediate, no, that must be a Little Egret... We have fellow members, Egrets, and a sense of satisfaction for joining the survey. This set of element, not exist in usual birdwatching events, is the attractiveness of the Egret Count.
