The cattle egret was still there when I left Benning Marsh at 10:00. It was by the thruway when I arrived, but flew toward me and was much closer, but quickly flew to the grassy area to the left. I often had to wait for the dust clouds to settle to get a decent view. Those trucks fly through there. There were two peregrines in the area stirring up the killdeer.
I hope this goes through. I emailed from my iPhone but the server wouldn't accept it. Any ideas why?
