[BirdPhotoIndia] Egret ID help pls

Dear all,

This photo was taken at Thattekad, Kerala, India on 11th Nov 2014.

Request help with the ID of this egret - is it a white morph Western Reef Egret?

I am confused by the leg colour - they seem to be yellow up to a
little below the 'knee' and black above that. As per illustrations in
Grimmett, none of the egrets seem to have legs coloured like this -
the Intermediate and Large have all-black legs, the Little has yellow
only on the feet and rest of the leg is black, the Cattle has
all-yellow. Hence the only option seems to be the Western Reef Egret.

Request help to confirm or correct the ID.

Thanks / regards
Umesh

(delhibirdpix) Sanjay Van

Date: 28 Feburary 2015

Location: Sanjay Van

I spent about two hours in this forest area today morning along with Saurav Dutta. Thankfully, bird activity was quite high. The highlight was surely three Small Minivets that burst out from the canopy from above, with their plumage shining in the morning light.

A lone Sulphur Bellied Warbler was observed out in the open briefly. It is a passage migrant through the Delhi region. Calls of Common Woodshrike were heard but the birds were tough to spot.

While we were on our way out, the loud and distinctive calls of Crested Serpent Eagle were heard from nearby but we couldn't spot it through the thick tree canopy.

ID help on the Redshank species would be appreciated.

Re: (delhibirdpix) Eyebrowed Thrush - First Record from Andamans(Feb 2012)

Nice bird to get.

I had got this bird end of Feb'12 in Mt Harriet NP, Andamans which was identified as a female Eye-browed Thrush.

Hi All,

Sharing a rarity with you all. I was walking along the Radhanagar beach during afternoon and noticed some movement in one of the trees. I followed the movement and it flew into another tree. Again tried to look at it & took a distant shot of the bird. It was pretty shy and disappeared soon after.
