I saw a Great Egret at Stuarts Pond today. I took some photographs and will attempt to send them via pbase. I have not tried this before to share my photos, so I hope it works. The Great Egrets started showing up at Stuart's Pond(RT 19 at Rosedale, VA) sometime around Thanksgiving. Jane Thornhill saw 5 there then Ed Morgan saw them a couple of days later. Since that time we have seen 1 to3 almost every day. The pbase address is as follows: http://www.pbase.com/opiehunter/stuarts_pond Tom & Laverne Hunter Russell County Bird Club Lebanon, VA
