                Lovely Little Egret you have there Woo:blue thumb: Years ago they would have been a rare visitor and we have been down to the Hayle Estuary in Cornwall to tick them but now they are a common site everywhere so the conditions in this have turned out quiet favourable for this species.:smile:At the moment in our county we have a Great White Egret and and in the summer we had three of them.It would be nice if they would breed and build up a nice population:smile:

                        A pair of Great White Egrets bred for the first time last year, in Zigs 'back yard' hopefully they will again and eventually colonise like it's smaller cousin.
