Observation details
very numerous and everywhere near the fishponds, sometimes even more numerous than the egrets, conservative estimate count, saw many perched on utility lines and a mixed of breeding and nonbreeding plumages with some juveniles in between, super interesting!! main focus this time was to take some better photos of them, including observing how they fish!! mainly just fly over the surface and tilt their head down to grab to fish out of the water, rarely dives and sometimes hovering in the air a bit like pied kingfisher looking for the fish
