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!
