Notes:
(Editor: There is some confusion between different versions of the print dictionary for 'wany'. The meaning above agrees with the WembaWemba - English version. In the English-WembaWemba version 'wany' is listed as 'bird - crane, white faced'. See also: Kathapi Mananderra. There are three similiar white egret species in the region - Cattle Egret, Plumed Egret and White Egret. Illustration is of Egretta alba - the White Egret.)
