When egrets fish, they usually move across the water quickly after finding prey, fight the fish on the water, and then take the opportunity to bite the fish quickly with their pointed beaks to find food.
When egrets are fishing and looking for food, they will step on the water with one foot, and they will also fly across shallow coastal waters to chase fish. Generally, when egrets see their prey, they will fly and run on the water, and they will walk on the water. , quickly pounce on the prey fish, and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the prey in the water. When the egret fishes, it stands alone on one foot in the water like a red-crowned crane, relying on its flexible neck and pointed beak to find food.
Egret Introduction
Egret is a medium-sized wading bird and a very beautiful water bird. It has a slender body and natural beauty, with very slender legs and neck, a long mouth, and the same goes for its toes. The egret, covered with feathers as white as snow, looks like a noble noble. It often inhabits coastal islands, coasts and nearby rivers, lakes, wetlands and other places, and forages around. They mainly feed on various small fish, but also eat animal foods such as shrimps, crabs, tadpoles and aquatic insects.
Egrets can be seen alone, in pairs or in small groups, and occasionally there are large groups of hundreds together. The feathers of egrets are of high value and their feathers are mostly white. Egrets mostly inhabit coastal islands and rivers, lakes and swamps near the coast.
They like to move and forage in streams and rivers near the coast, and rest in the mountains and forests near the coast. Egrets often stand with one foot in the water. Although their steps may seem light but very steady when they walk, egrets look very calm and leisurely.
