Hi All,

My son called on his way home from work to report, "a cormorant sized  
bird, all white, long legs and long orange-yellow beak, standing  
beside the road at Gilbert Allen's". I told him I suspected it was a  
cattle egret, as there have been some reported recently.

I drove out to G.W. Allen's and sure enough standing beside the road  
by a puddle in front of the machinery lot was a very dejected looking  
cattle egret. It was raining and the egret was hunched beside the  
parking lot and this puddle, it only reluctantly turned its head when  
I stopped to look, as much to say that this puddle in this rainy lot  
was taken! I drove on.

George Forsyth
