The egrets have returned! Monday, we thought we had a glimpse of them early in the morning. Yesterday, I saw one egret twice, in virtually the same spot.
You don't suppose someone planted a decoy, do you?? *G*
Dear Husband thought the fishing might be good at that spot. I suspect the egret was standing where water flows from the north lakes, under the road, into the south lakes. Better to catch an unwary fish going visiting, or swept up in the current.
Making a note: Next year, we can look for the egrets and heron in late March or early April.
Great that the egrets have returned, Buffy. They are so graceful. Our Purple Martins came in, yesterday. They are busy trying to evict the starlings from their house--in a neighbor's yard across the street.
