These noble-looking little herons live next Yellow Waters - probably most of them near the Gagudju Cooinda lodge. They realized life can be so much easier when picking up what falls down from people's tables. But they appear very serious and concentrated on their business. Keeping their eyes on the ground they don't even seem to notice all the human beings around, for them we're as interesting as a moving tree. |
