A few from Port Hedland

All new to me

Nice shots from Port Hedland, thanks for sharing  - good to see your photos of the birds in that area. Both new to me as well.

I don't know if they are new to me? I had to look in my book. Is the first a Eastern Reef Egret?   (it would be nice to put a name to the bird if you know)

That doesn't look quite the same to me but you may be right.  I'll inquire locally
