    Default Galloping Egret

    This Little Egret was running like the clappers along the estuary and he nearly fell flat on his beak.............. Well some thing like that.
    I found it so amusing because you can see he was embarrassed after and then went off running again. They are usually so slow and elegant.

    Lol. No. That's why I found it amusing . Some times birds are so silly and it's usually the males

    Lol. Well it is certainly true with the male mallards. Things male will do to attract a bird.

    I love watching the pigeons in the middle of town. The females are busy eating, heads down, and the blokes are strutting up and down with their chest out being completely ignored
