MASQUERADING EGRET

When Chris Bird receives a call from a local farm at Trefenter to say that a large white bird has been feeding amongst cattle for over a fortnight, one can imagine the thoughts going through his head. So, also imagine his disappointment when he views the bird and sees that it is a Little Egret!
Nevertheless it is an interesting record both in terms of the bird's behaviour and its inland presence with no open water nearby.
