Piercing Stare!

Post by ApusApus »

Went out for a walk & some fresh air yesterday, ended up at Paphos Sewerage Works so not that fresh really! Came across this Cattle Egret looking for something juicy in the undergrowth! :)

She’s looking very intent, something has caught her eye!

I spotted this one near the sewerage works. I had cycled passed there and made my way to the beach. I took a photo of this bird before it flew off.

Very common on Cyprus, the Egret, they can also have black beaks.
