We’ve had few opportunities to see or photograph great egrets in the last year and a half. Our favourite reserve has been jam-packed since Covid struck and we haven’t been back. We parked by the Ottawa River recently hoping to see one of these beautiful birds and luck was with us.

They really are beautiful. How lucky for you that you saw this bird, and that you even have them in your area. We don’t see them here at all. We have great blue herons, but that’s about it. Very nice photo.

We’re pretty fortunate. We saw a GBH that day as well but it was too far away to get a decent shot. Thanks, Anneli.
