Cattle Egret Breeding Plumage
This cattle egret was at Frenchman's Cove in Jamaica. We are familiar with the cattle egret and see them in Florida and the Caribbean, but we don't think we've ever noticed one in breeding plumage before. As many of you know, we are fond of fancy hairstyles on birds, so we especially like this photo.
