Dereila Nature Inn Home > Bird's Nest Lounge > Bird of the Month   March 2007 - Cattle Egret   Bubulcus ibis The Cattle Egret is a North American immigrant from Africa. This small white heron stands about 20 ins (50 cm) and is the most common heron in many of the southern states, breeding from California, east to the Great Lakes and Maine and down to the Gulf Coast. It feeds on insects in pastures (hence its name) and wetlands.   Have an idea for bird of the month? We'd love to hear from you.   February 2007 << | >> April 2007   Bird of the Month archives         top Dereila Nature Inn Home > Bird's Nest Lounge > Bird of the Month
