Not sure why but Egrets always look to me like grumpy old men. Their expression is always downcast and sad, shoulders hunched…I love them for their grumpiness.

Egrets were grumpy old men in another life. They didn’t fool you. 😁

I always suspected so, just like cats were teenage girls and dogs were four-year old children! 😁

Hehehe! That’s their charm too. We see loads of them here. My daughter us forever crying, “A stork! He’s brought a baby!”
