Nice one. Thanks for sharing.
What is the quickest way to ID a bird as a Chinese Egret? Is it green legs?

Very nice pic of a very clean Chinese Egret! Congrats Godo! I think aside from the green feet coupled with the yellow beak, the Chinese Egret sports a somewhat long beak and sometimes has some potruding hairs. It's hard really to identify especially when various egrets are around. Here's my take of the Chinese Egret. I thought at first it's a Little Egret, but the feet and beak are not black, they are just covered with mud. This is one dirty Chienese Egret Canon 400D 100-400mm @400mm 1/500 f7.1 iso200 Taken during the Asian Waterbird Census (AWC) with Wild Bird Club of the Philippines (WBCP) and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) National Capital Region at the Navotas Shoreline in Sitio Pulo, Tanza, Navotas on January 18, 2009.
