Observation details
Juvenile. Large egret, uniformly grayish plumage with no areas of strong contrast, long, rather thick dark legs, mostly dark heavy, straight bill, and pale eyes. The bird flew in from the north and landed briefly on the rocks at the far east end of the Point south of the fishing pier before continuing south. Seen in the morning.
