Great White Egret at Pant Pool

 The Great White Egret has been on the edges of Pant Pond or the adjacent rough pasture for the past month.  Sometimes it is on the banks of the small bay at the far end and is difficult to see even with a scope from the side of the road. There is sometimes a bit of contention between this bird and the Grey herons.
Early in the month Little Egrets were displaying on the edge of the pond and spending time on the willows in the adjacent rough pasture but disappeared when the cattle were let out
