At about 2:15 this afternoon, I saw a cattle egret in the grass at the north end of the central pond. I saw it from a distance, but the yellow beak was very clear and its size compared to the nearby Canada geese was in line with a cattle egret. Its neck was also thicker than that of a great egret. A Washington first for me!
