Both Snowy Egrets were foraging together (quite actively, may I add) at
Purgatory Creek this morning, July 5th, at 8am. (Eden Prairie, Hennepin Co.)
They stuck to the west edge of the large mudflat.
A scope is a necessity, although from the distance I could make them out due
to their tiny size. And remember, if you're going in the morning, view from
the bridge on the east side; if you're going in the evening, view from the
observation deck (aka "blind") on the west side.
Good birding!

There were "2" Snowy Egrets present at the Purgatory Creek Wetlands in
Eden Prairie, Hennepin County from 1:40pm - 2:00pm while I was there.
They were foraging together around the perimeter of the bare mudflat
amongst the many Great Egrets and Great Blue Herons.
