Hi Chris
Not bad, but what about the grey morph of the
Eastern Reef Egret which runs all over the shores in front of my place here at
Broome? Perhaps this species received its common name before the dark morph was
commonly known. I have formed the opinion, however, that the naming is rather
abitrary.
Cheers from a very wet BBO (Crab Creek Road is now
a series of Landcruiser bonnet-deep lakes)
