[cayugabirds-l] Great Egret at Sapsucker Woods 6-13

2015-06-13 Thread Diane Morton
This morning Ken and I led a beginner bird walk at Sapsucker Woods.  One
highlight was a gorgeous breeding plumage Great Egret.  We all had great
looks at its green facial skin through the scope.  We observed the bird
from the vine-covered pergola that looks out on the pond (just south of the
bird feeder area).  Later I went to get my camera for a photo, but the bird
was no longer at this spot.  I hope it returns!

Great Egret is still barely visible at the east side of the pond about midway 
back as viewed from the area Diane describes. It is partially hidden by trees, 
but being bright white helps in picking it up. It occasionally walks around 
within a small area so be patient and it should show itself.
