Reddish Egret at South Bay Biological Study Area

Today at 2:30, a Reddish Egret was lingering in the grass just north of the jetty at the SBBSA. Only the head, neck, and upper chest area was visible but it looked good for an adult. Tide was very high but a good number of black skimmers were feeding in the area and a small flock (9) of Western/Clark’s Grebes were off the end of the jetty, the first I have seen there this fall.
