Cattle Egrets using public transport. A hot bird watching tip: Watering holes are good places to see wet birds, such as this. Alone time. Taking a bath …. And drying on a giraffe with your friends. What a life. Kingfishers – the poor man`s Pittas? African Pygmy Kingfisher. Brown-hooded Kingfisher. Broad-billed Roller ….

There had to be at least 100 or more, and when I got closer, I was excited to find several Cattle Egrets ( Bubulcus ibis ), a species of which a decent photograph had always eluded me. There were not only Cattle Egrets and Great Egrets ( Ardea alba ) but Snowy Egrets ( Egretta thula ) as well.

From the 1940s to the 1970s, the species rapidly spread from the southern tip of the peninsula to areas north of Lake Okeechobee including the Tampa-St. Large swaths of the Everglades were being drained to make way for cattle ranching, citrus groves, and low density housing that included many overgrown, weedy lots.
