Description

Join us for a deep dive into the fascinating world of the Great Egret (Ardea alba), a globally widespread heron found across multiple continents. We'll explore its remarkable conservation success story—recovering from near extinction due to the plume trade to now being a species of "Least Concern". Discover its unique physical adaptations for wetland life, like long legs and an S-shaped neck, and its crucial role as a top predator and indicator species for ecosystem health.
