Snowy Egret
Yi-Ying Lee found the bird on May 17, 2026, at the pond in Meadowridge Business Park and quickly spread the word to other birders. There was also a Great Egret on the pond which made comparison of the two species easy.
While not necessary for common species, it is good to get into the habit of including photographs and recordings/spectrographs so that you do it for uncommon species that require more documentation–like this one.
