Observation details
Great find by Tristan Snip, initially uploaded yesterday evening to eBird as a Cattle Egret with a description that sounded promising for LBHE. Jeremy Hatt, Donny Moore, and others were soon on scene to confirm it as such! Tried last night unsuccessfully, as the bird disappeared for a little over an hour before returning in the late evening to roost. Arrived today for first light and spotted the bird still sleeping in the same location. Later flew toward me for point-blank views. Small white heron, thick pinkish-gray-based slightly decurved bill with black tip, yellowish lore, greenish legs. Randomly took up to the West with blackbirds leaving roost within 25 minutes of initial sighting.
