Hello Russell,
I am looking at my photos in 1995.We found one Egret on 8-14-1995 and again
i photographed this bird on 8-29-1995.This bird was in the canal where the
Water tower is and also on the game range and on the 25th on Damon Point.Is
this bird what you listed on 12-26 -1995 onother bird ,or did the bird we
had in August the same?
There also where several Great Egrets in the Kent Ponds in earlier times
when there was a lot of rareties benn sighted.I also took photos of this
birds what i can not find at this moment.I believe this was in 1994.
