Crazy bird dance entertains RVers

RVing around the country we see thousands of egrets. However one egret, the Reddish Egret, had us enthralled by his behavior. This guy would be a hit at any disco bobbing and weaving, tossing and turning delivering a fantastic dance performance all without the help of music. This guy is in his breeding plumage and performs this dance when he is hunting for fish. His bill is pink with a black tip and his legs are cobalt blue. His favorite dance floor is the salt marshes along the Gulf Coast and he usually prefers to dance alone. Very entertaining and delightful bird. Jim Twamley, Professor of RVing
