Egrets, like other birds, possess a specialized digestive system that efficiently processes their food. They have a beak adapted for catching fish and small aquatic animals, which they swallow whole. The food then passes into the crop, where it is temporarily stored, before moving to the stomach, which consists of two parts: the glandular stomach (proventriculus) for enzymatic digestion and the muscular stomach (gizzard) that grinds the food. Nutrients are absorbed in the intestines, while waste is excreted through the cloaca.
