The Great Egret Visited our Neighborhood - Critter 115

Wednesday, July 29, 2026
The Great Egret is one of permanent birds which could be observed in our neighborhood or nearby areas.

We might see this "big" egret in the several places around our neighborhood. My favorite site is University Lake. 

Othe locations include:
- Comite river, one of our big rivers
- Swamp nature center
- many lakes (capitol lake, lake Martin, downtown lake etc)
- Cypress Island Preserve
- and many local ponds

We don't know why this bird came to our neighborhood. She might be trying to find food such as frogs and snakes.

Do you familiar with this bird?
