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. Gary

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!
