Great Egret (Ardea alba) sent on May 26, 2013 (20:23) by Antonio Valzano. 2 comments, 577 views.

at 500mm, 1/1600 f/6.3, ISO 640, hand held. Saline di Punta Contessa, Italy. Specie: Bubulcus ibis

L'areale dell'Airone guardabuoi comprende gran parte dell'Asia, dell'Africa, delle Americhe e dell'Europa meridionale, compresa l'Italia centro-meridionale. Il suo territorio di attestazione si sta espandendo e negli ultimi anni si è assistito ad un aumento delle popolazioni e delle nidificazioni in Italia settentrionale. Anche i contingenti di animali svernanti sono sensibilmente aumentati. Da notare che durante tutto il XX secolo il suo areale si è costantemente ampliato; infatti prima degli anni trenta non era noto in alcuna parte del continente americano, che oggi è occupato quasi totalmente dalla specie.
