Hello all, Given there are nearly 40+ CATTLE EGRETS (assuming the Ontario 14 are not the same Inds as the Ithaca 16) in the northeast right now, and given this is an Old World species that naturally colonized the States, I wonder if these are birds coming from the Old World and not birds moving in from southern States? Is there a weird weather pattern going on across the Pond or to our south? I guess the strong southern winds could explain it.
