Cattle Egrets are medium-sized birds known for their white plumage and distinctive yellowish-orange breeding plumage. They are often found in fields and pastures, where they follow grazing animals like cattle to catch insects and small animals disturbed by their movement. These birds are highly adaptable and can thrive in various habitats, including wetlands, grasslands, and agricultural areas. Cattle Egrets are social creatures, often seen in flocks, and they are known for their unique behavior of perching on the backs of larger animals, which helps them find food more easily.
