Comment'Ebony and Ivory' Cattle Egret in symbiosis with its host. There are a lot of Cattle Egrets here as its a wetlands that is run in conjunction with a dairy farm - so ideal conditions and shows what is possible. I took a lot of shots and waited quite a long time to get the bird actually on top of the cow but eventually it happened! Love the contrast of the white bird with the black cow.
