Hi All,
   A friend called today to say there was a very large white bird in the No=
rth Aspy River estuary. I checked it out and it was, as I suspected, a Grea=
t Egret. I have seen this species at this location a few years ago but it w=
as still a thrill. The bird was at the far end of the estuary so a Great Bl=
ue Heron that was nearby and made for an easy size comparison. My friend sa=
ys the bird has been around for a few days. All the best.
