Saw cattle egret on the ground in front of a Mennonite farm while traveling on rte 90 going to Montezuma WR. Started by a truck, flew up and landed on a fence post near a sheep and goat pen. Definite id. Some breeding color with orangish plumes on the chest, back and head. Was not seen when I traveled back through at 5:40 pm.
