The egret follows the cow because it eats the insects which are attracted by the cow's manure, and other manure dropped earlier, but as the cow moves through the herbage it disturbs flies and other creatures which the egret eats. If the cow is annoyed by flies on its hide the egret will also clean those up. So it is a happy partnership.
