Lovely White Birds – Cattle Egret

Cattle Egret is well adapted to many diverse terrestrial and aquatic habitats. As the name suggests, this widespread resident in India, is commonly found around cattle feasting on the insects disturbed by the grazing mammals. Grasshoppers are its preferred food but it does not mind frogs, toads, lizards and other small mammals. Sometimes you can find them sitting on cattle eating parasitic insects as well.
