Intermediate Egret - Soft Tones of Nature
A pair of Cattle Egret pose under a rather dark and mystic blue sky, perched on a Camel Thorn Tree as seen in the wilds of Namibia.
This bird is common, following both water and animals. Food of preference include frogs and ticks.
I could not but help to submit this image as the pair looks so graceful and attractive in their pose of contour and blue tones under a rainy sky.

The intermediate egret, median egret, smaller egret, or yellow-billed egret is a medium-sized heron. Some taxonomists put the species in the genus "Egretta" or "Ardea". It is a resident breeder from east Africa across the Indian subcontinent to Southeast Asia and Australia.
