Hi, I am still trying to work my way around egret ID
, I am seeking confirmation and/or correction on these egrets. The first photo of the 3 egrets shows, I think, from left to right a great egret, a little egret and a cattle egret. It is the little egret that I am unsure if it is actually an intermediate egret.
The second photo shows the same bird from a different angle, focusing on its beak colour and eye. I noticed the bill of the cattle egret behind it seems rather orangish with a black tip (though maybe it is just the photo). The cattle egrets are about 6 feet behind it.
The third photo is a different egret, taken in a location about a kilometer away from the first two photos. I believe this is a little egret based on its running, colour of bill and I think I can see a yellow foot.
Comments, corrections etc appreciated.
thank you in advance
