Nice catch!

How on earth did you get so near the Whimbrel???

I know the Chinese Egrets have been lurking near Tesco lately but have been really too lazy to go photograph them.

Interesting catch mamuin.

I think in Penang chien only shoots if he doesn't have to get out of the vehicle.

The whimbrel were close coz of the tide a bit high n i was lucky it didn't flew of when i approached it. It was catching a crab that time.

Go la. This egret behaviour quite different,it wil use its leg to chase the fish to the surface before catching it. It has green legs.
