grumpy Great White Egret- Bool Lagoon a Ramasar listed waterway near Naracoorte SA

this is the most amazing site for birdlife - it was a gorgeous place and so many species of birds in great numbers there. This guy was a little grumpy with me because he was happily perched on the boardwalk until I came walking along sending him flapping off squawking his displeaure
