[Ontbirds]Great Egret, Richmond Hill
All, not a rarity but for York Region, I thought it noteworthy. There has been a Great Egret hanging out today in the pond at the corner of Yonge Street and Jefferson Sideroad in Richmond Hill. Jefferson Sdrd. is south of King Rd and north of Elgin Mills Rd. Also, last night before dusk I counted 23 Common Nighthawks and that was just from the dinner table!
