Birds in a paddy field, Thalduwa, Sri Lanka.

A Great Egret and two bitterns on a paddy field close to Thalduwa.

Paddy field at Talduwa.

Egrets gather in large numbers to eat the worms turned up from the wet soil after ploughing. Note the reflections of the egrets in the water producing a 'mirror-image'. I took this picture 3 Kilometers from Talduwa on the Talduwa - Amithirigala road. This road is being developed as the main route to the Katunayake airport from Avissawella. It goes from Avissawella - Talduwa - Amithirigala - Hiswella - Nittambuwa - Katunayaka.
