just now landed, and remains, at the Stewart Park pond across from the playground. An interesting interaction after it landed right next to a great blue heron. The heron seemed to strike an aggressive pose as it stalked the egret along the edge of the pond at a distance of about 15 feet behind.

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.
