The Tropical Swamp House
Watch out! There is a man falling into a pool of mud, his head dropping under the surface. He reaches out and tries to grab hold of something to hold onto. All the while, his frantic efforts to survive are being observed by an elegant cattle egret. Sadly, nothing as dramatic as this will be going on in the Swamp House, except for the docile behaviour of an egret - one of its inhabitants.
