Cow Bay Birds

Hi All,

The Great Egret is still resident in the Cow Bay Marsh this morning.  I =
think that the Tri-coloured Heron is also present but due to the bird's =
distant location I was not able to identify it positively.  One of the =
ID pictures in the gallery linked below shows the bird with a couple of =
GB Herons beside him.  He is very blue and has a rusty neck but =
yellowish legs.  The picture is not great but it's the best one I got.

My list from Cow Bay Marsh this morning included the following:

Killdeer - 1
Spotted Sandpiper - 1
Great Egret - 1
Tri-coloured Heron - 1 (maybe)
Eider Hens - 6
Eider ducklings - 12
Great Blue Herons - 15
Willets - 5
Lesser Yellowlegs - 3
American Goldfinch - 7

I have added pictures of these birds to my June gallery at:  =
