Example of Signage - 23 March 2017

23 March 2017, at Flamingo Land, Malton. On two out of three aviaries, new since my previous visit.

um... they capitalized garzetta. And there's no information. Is this the only sign or are there others which actually say something?

This is the only sign (except identical ones for the other species in the aviary), still an improvement on the previous signs, which were nonexistent!

It might just be my eyes being blinded by the first serious appearance of the sun outside my house this year, but doesn't that look more like a Snowy Egret? I've never seen a Little with that much and that bright a shade of yellow facial skin.

could be - I guess it depends where the photo came from. But nigripes from southeast Asia has yellow facial skin, unlike your European Little Egrets. I don't actually know how to tell them apart from Snowy Egrets from a photo though.

Ah, possibly it's an Asian bird in the photo then. The ones in the zoo will be E. g. garzetta, I'm sure.
