Abstract The Little Blue Heron is a specialist in shallow water stalking, and it benefits from being alone where it can walk very slowly along taking care not to scare its potential prey, or by feeding commensally following another animal capturing the prey it disturbs. Its engagement in feeding aggregations apparently is an extension of

Slaty Egret Egretta vinaceigula
2005Abstract whatever it encounters from molluscs to floating dead material. It is unusual among typical herons having young that look so different from the adults. It is possible that young also use different social and feeding strategies. When non-breeding, birds move distances to access appropriate feeding sites or avoid drought. Although

Abstract The typical habitats of this species, namely reed beds in extensive shallow inundation zones and temporary rainfall basins, are a not uncommon situation on many African river systems. So why this species, which has some ability to move about, has such a restricted distribution is unclear.

2005Abstract The Little Egret is a species characterized by its flexibility, which permits a diversity of ecological strategies across its large range. Among populations currently identified as Little Egrets there is considerable variation in bill, leg, and plumage, some of which have ecological implications. Coastal populations tend to have

Abstract Uncertainty about recent population trends in the USA suggests the need for a range-wide survey, which should be readily possible given the conspicuousness of the birds.An action plan for this species within the southeast USA is desirable in that it has shown a tendency for population shifts.
