Egret central........

2 Dec - Currently there is an extraordinary gathering of Egrets at Cleveland Lakes in the CWP, I paid a visit today and I counted 4 Great White Egrets with no less than 62 Little Egrets....a constant feeding frenzy going on in the reed-fringed shallows. Grey Herons also in attendance but in the minority - a reversal of fortunes over the last decade or two, when the Egrets used to be very much the rarities. Also flight views of two Kingfishers.
