Little egret - ಸಣ್ಣ ಬೆಳ್ಳಕ್ಕಿ - Sanna Belakki |
Types of Heron/Egrets species found in Mysuru:
The family Ardeidae contains the bitterns, herons and egrets. Herons and egrets are medium to large wading birds with long necks and legs. Bitterns tend to be shorter necked and more wary. Members of Ardeidae fly with their necks retracted, unlike other long-necked birds such as storks, ibises and spoonbills. There are around 16 species found in Karnataka and I have found 8 in Mysuru
