Little Egrets

Of some interest, there are currently five little egrets feeding amongst sheep in a ploughed field on the west side of the road just north of Taliesin.  They have been there a few days.  At first, I assumed they would be cattle egret, but definitely little.  Presumably feeding on invertebrates brought up by the ploughing.  I don't recall seeing 'inland' groups like this before, away from water.
