On our way home from shopping, my driver husband kindly made a detour driving on the bank (last 3 pictures were from last year, not the same day), hearing my pitiful cry not being able to spot birds p;) To my surprise, I found the small Egret not in the river but in the paddy field following the tractor seeking for food.
Even far away from the tractor being on the bank, I enjoyed the sweet scene Egret following the tractor eagerly a while for the first time♡♡♡

Hello Miyako, cool sighting of the Egret. It looks so close to the farmer! Pretty sky captures too! Thank you for sharing your post with my critter party! Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteDearest Miyako,
ReplyDeleteThat goes to show us humans again how clever those egrets, and other birds, are for following the farmer's tractor in order to snack on un-earthed worms!
Great photos and they always make me think about my home country as Japan has so many similarities with The Netherlands!
Hugs,
Mariette
Miyako ~ love the shots of the bird following the tractor and the clouds and sky over the field are magnificent ~ Glad hubby took the detour ~ Great shots for SWF ~ xoxo

i love the cattle egrets. they are smart birds to follow tractors, cattle, horses to get freshly scared up bugs!
ReplyDeleteEgret is so cute following the tractor! Wow, he doesn't seem scared of the large machinery making noise at all!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures from last year are beautiful. Love the rice field. Such peaceful scenery.
Happy Friday, Miyako san! Have a great weekend xoxo
Such pretty fluffy clouds against that blue sky! Cattle egrets are often found in fields near...what else?...cattle! They have a great relationship in the pastures. Wonderful photos and hope you have a delightful weekend too. :)

What strange behavior for an egret! Maybe they feed him often.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning, Miyako! I loved this image of the egret and "his" tractor! The tractor must be uncovering something delicious for the egret. Happy Critter Day!
ReplyDeleteWonderful post and great photos !
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it was a beautiful day. I love the shots of the egret following the tractor. Smart bird.
ReplyDeleteI was watching some cattle egrets in the bay just this morning...no need to apologize tho, they're small egrets naturally.
ReplyDeleteGreat images...
Clever of the egret to wait for the tractor to find him dinner. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThat's a smart egret. Such lovely scenery close to you! The blue sky, white fluffy clouds and green fields are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDear Miyako,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing your lovely photos and yes, one very smart little Egret following along behind the tractor finding worms for his dinner.
