The cattle egrets at the hotel in Maui were very tame. You could drive by and they would barely flinch. This one was slowly stalking through the ground cover, every now and then snatching up a fat bug. I followed him for about 50 feet, snapping pictures with my portable camera, watching him dine on tender bees and grasshoppers. The egrets were there every afternoon and were fun to watch. In the morning there were two small quail-like birds who also prowled the parking lot for a quick meal; however, they were pretty camera shy and will not be gracing these pages.
