The lake area on the campus of Hainan University in southern China is never short of interesting sightings. Just like the seemingly amusing story depicted by the photos below. A great egret appears to be "lecturing" a group of Chinese pond herons and a little egret on fishing techniques. Realizing that words alone would not persuade the birds, it immediately put its knowledge to use by catching a fish.
