in a colony where grey herons, little egrets, night herons, and cormorants coexist, it seems that conflicts over nesting sites occur... this appears to be a scene where a night heron tried to take over a nest being built by a little egret, which angered the egret and continued to threaten it for a while before finally taking it back 👀(4 photos) #bird #nature #littleegret #blackcrownednightheron
