I carefully checked my photos of this particular bird. Not only are great egrets the most common type of egret found in this location, there were other ID features. Long neck, obvious kink in its neck, and the gape extends beyond the eye, etc. Plus, I checked my ID with experts.

So many birds!
Mostly red-necked stints in this shot.
It is thrilling when hundreds of them zoom right past you.
(I get my thrills where I can!)

Pelicans are one of my favourite birds to photograph.
These birds were landing at Bald Hill Beach while bathed in golden dawn light.

It's strange - because Fauziah had no trouble pronouncing 'lobotomised s#itheads' 🤔

Amused (again) to hear Fauziah try to pronounce 'meteorology'. She mangles it every time 🤣

Flies weren't too much of a problem. The mozzies and midges though - urgh!
