I watched this Egret feeding in very shallow water in Mudeford Harbour yesterday and it was using a technique I've not seen before. Most usually they seem to either move their feet about to disturb the bottom or ambush hunt from a standing posiition but this one was "Dabbbling" its beak like a duck.
It looked to be taking small crustacea but I couldn't get a clear enough shot to check. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
