As we drove home from Phillip Island floodwaters had largely receded (obviously - we were able to get through!).
As we were entering the town of Koo Wee Rup I had to stop to try to photograph a scattered group of about 30 cattle egret. I'm sure cattle egret congregate in much largely numbers elsewhere but I have never seen this many congregate down south.
As we stopped I was envisaging better shots as we had seemed quite close and there were a number of birds. However I was thwarted by the long grass and lack of patience (cold weather, a long day, a waiting car full of spouse, kids & dog, and a music exam deadline!).
