Got to see the Cattle Egret up fairly close. It flew toward me. I hope it stays for a while so others can see it. I have one of my images of it here, if you are interested.
http://www.pbase.com/image/146026524 The two Peregrines were cooperative too. They moved around from place to place, but finally sat for a while in one of the trees near the new shorebird area. One was noticeably larger than the other. This image is of the larger bird. http://www.pbase.com/carol_keeler_photo/image/146026758 Lots of Lesser and Greater Yellowlegs were in the Visitors pool. Lots of Killdeer other places, but not much else shorebird wise. I was looking for the Golden Plovers. The Peregrines kept stirring up the birds which didn't help. Many ducks were around, but not in the main pool.
